The Beating of Another Heart

She comes from the hardest town

They build you up to let you down and

Leave you with an armour hard as steel

It's not the chaos or the heat

Or the noises from the street but

Something inside she has to beat that

Shoots out a nerve

Causes judgements to swerve

And makes her feel that something must be wrong

She'll attempt to resist

And pretend it don't exist when it does

But if ever her defence drop

Love takes a shot pop

Baby you can't stop

The beating of another heart

The beating of another heart

Yeah

Sometimes she needs the beating of another heart

All the steps we seem to take

Are sometimes stairways to escape from

All the things that were supposed to come

And there's a threat when letting go

Showing things she'll never show but

I won't give in now I know

As I ask a friend

How on earth can I send

A little bit of me to her

She'll attempt to resist

And pretend I don't exist when I do

But if ever her defence drop

Love takes a shot pop

Baby you can't stop

The beating of another heart

The beating of another heart

Yeah

Sometimes she needs the beating of another heart

The pounding goes on forever

At night when we are here together

They say that people get too clever for love

But I know

But if ever her defence drop

Love takes a shot pop

Baby you can't stop

The beating of another heart

The beating of another heart

Yeah

Sometimes she needs the beating of another heart

She needs the beating of another heart

She needs the beating of another heart
