Heartbeat

Another summer, another vacation is over
A September morning with the sun and smell of the clover
Down by the gates we sit and 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 she made me
Happy that was until I saw you
Chorus:
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, it will end in tears
I need a lover that loves 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
I was happy with the kisses she gave me
Now there's nothing on earth that can save me
Why should I care I can have you?
