The Heartbeats Everything by Barbara Dickson Lyrics

Empty-hearted, standing at your open door
I didn't realise what I was looking for
Empty-hearted, waiting in the shadows for night to fall
But no one waits forever and the hurt is gone

CHORUS :
The heart beats everything that gets in the way
The heart beats everything that gets in the way
Don't get in the way of my heart (less my heart beat you)
Don't get in the way of my heart (less my heart beat you)

Like a child I turned my face and acted cool
No one ever came too close, that was my rule
Now you've turned me into someone I don't recognize
You've changed it all, and now I'm falling with open eyes

CHORUS

Heartbeat, heartbeat, hear my heartbeat
I can't beat my heart with you
Heartbeat, heartbeat, hear my heartbeat
Don't get in the way of my heart
Don't get in the way of my heart (less my heart beat you)
Don't get in the way of my heart

CHORUS TO FADE
