Heartbeat

Four in the morning and I walk through the door
I'm alone, and all I can think of
Is I don't wanna feel this way anymore
Holding it back while we're sitting on the floor
I can feel it coming, trying to stop it
But when the waves hit the shore

I'm slumping under your spell
You knock me out, and all it takes is the secrets you tell me
Terrified of making it up in my head
It's what I do the best

'Cause baby, you're bringing out a beating in my chest
A beating in my chest

Four in the morning and I'm in a hospital on my own
Waited all night for your name to pop up on my phone
Trying not to tell you how to live your life, but I'm still all alone
Figuring out when you need me and when you don't

Falling or falling apart, no, I can't tell the difference
I swam in and played with the sharks
And now my blood is in the water
I don't know if I want her, but I must confess

Baby, you're bringing out a beating in my chest
A beating in my chest

Four in the morning, pouring out my heart on this song
I don't wanna take it too far
But I can see the snowball rolling, coming down
Wishing that things would go back to the way they were before
My heart has awful timing, I'm inclined to leave it

I'm not asking for a chance
I don't wanna mess it up again
I just feel the dance thudding into my ribs
The blood is pumping
And it feels like that feeling that my heart knows best

I guess that baby, you're bringing out a beating in my chest
A beating in my chest
A beating in my chest
A beating in my chest
