Heartbeat In The Night
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.
Another heart is breakin' tonight.
Somebody's world is shakin' tonight.
Let's talk about love, what's it worth?
You feel the joy and you take the hurt.
Another heart is breakin' tonight.
Somebody's playin' with fire tonight.
Somebody lovin' a liar tonight.
Let's talk about truth, what's the price?
Your soul is all that you sacrifice.
Somebody's playin' with fire tonight.
Before you step on out, you'd better step back.
Before you give it up, give it some slack
Love is like a heartbeat in the night, oh, it's a hunger.
And the midnight shakes and it takes your breath away.
Oooh, it's a heartbeat in the night poundin' like thunder.
You gotta hold on 'til the darkness meets the day
Somebody's lost and lonely tonight.
Somebody's chance is only tonight.
Let's talk about trust, what's it cost?
You give it all and they rip it off.
Somebody's lost and lonely tonight.
Well, before you step on out, you'd better step back.
Before you give it up, give it some slack.
