Heartbeat

Another summer, another vacation is over

A September morning with the sun and the smell of the clover

Down by the gate we sit and we watch all our friends go by

And pretend we don't hear the bell that rings through the summer sky

I was happy with the kisses she gave me

It's just that happy was all she made me

Happy that was until I saw you

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?

Oh, you hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?

How could I help but admire her beauty?

Standing on the line between desire and duty

Heartbeat, heartbeat, it'll end in tears, oh

I need a lover when love's such a dangerous place to be

Oh, if we were meant for each other then why don't you answer me?

Don't keep me waiting, you know that I long to be by your side

We could even be together tonight

I was happy with the kisses she gave me

But now there's nothing on earth could save me

Why should I care? I can't have you, oh

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?

Oh, you hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?

How could I help but admire her beauty?

Standing on the line between desire and duty

Heartbeat, heartbeat, it'll end in tears

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?

Oh, you hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?

How could I help but admire her beauty?

Standing on the line between desire and duty

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?

You hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?

How could I help but admire her beauty?

Standing on the line between desire and duty

Heartbeat, heartbeat
