Take Every Beat Of My Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Like rubbing sticks together heats up the stone
You unveil emotions like strikin' gold
We could believe it's just a short road
Or we could take it just as far as it goes
Take me beyond the border of heaven
Where we can see no end in sight
Let the truth remove the distance
So we can feel it happen here tonight
Don't let me stand a chance to recover
I wanna find out what real love is like
Take me on, baby I'm waitin'
Right from the start
Take every beat of my heart
You put my dreams in motion when you walk in the room
You make it so hard to breathe the closer I get to you
Well it's all over but to say it's so
From all directions, I'm ready to go
Take me beyond the border of heaven
Where we can see no end in sight
Let the truth remove the distance
So we can feel it happen here tonight
Don't let he stand a chance to recover
I wanna find out what real love is like
Take me on, I know I can take it
Finish me off, baby I'm waitin'
Right from the start
Take every beat of my heart
(Well) I won't take no for an answer
(Cause) you can feel it when it's right
Ohh-tonight we're goin' the distance
Ohh-right through the heart
Right from the start
You took me beyond the border of heaven
Where we can see no end in sight
Let the truth remove the distance
So we can feel it happen here tonight
Don't let me stand a chance to recover
I wanna find out what real love is like
Take me on I know I can take it
Finish me off (cause) baby I'm waitin'
Right from the start
Yeah, like a thief in the dark
Take every beat of my heart
Take every beat of my heart
