"The Way to Your Heart" is a 1988 song, and only hit single, by Soulsister, a band consisting of Belgian songwriter/vocalist duo Jan Leyers and Paul Michiels. A mixture of pop and rock with a very Motown-sounding tune, the song is about a boy dreaming of a girl that he‘s in love with, but she doesn't answer his love.

After the singles “You Get To Me” (originally as The Soul Sisters) and “Talk About It” they had a #1 hit record with “The Way to Your Heart” in Belgium. The Belgian release had no B-side and was thereby sold as a half price single. Afterwards a maxi single was released with a long version (5:18) and an instrumental version. The single was the opening track of their debut album It Takes Two, of which 700.000 copies were sold worldwide. In The Netherlands and Germany they reached the top 10. After its European success, the single was released in the US in 1989 where it went to # 41 in the Billboard Hot 100 and to #5 on Billboard Adult Contemporary. It was the only single by Soulsister that reached the Billboard chart.
