Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Mar. 5, 2022]

Your room is damp, your love's turning cold
Where is the meaning that I thought we could hold
I can't believe what has happened to you
So I stand back and watch 'cause there's nothing I can do

What poetry, a delicious joke
All your flame going up in smoke
Just once more, just once again
If I ever get caught here, they know who to blame

In a heartbeat
And a heartbeat's all that it takes
In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat see your heart break
You can see your heart break
That's all that it takes

I play some records but the words are too strange
I call you sometimes but your number's been changed
I will remember every smile and tear
But when I listen to you I just don't want to hear

In a heartbeat
And a heartbeat's all that it takes
In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat see your heart break
You can see your heart break
That's all it takes
Just like this

In a heartbeat
And a heartbeat's all that it takes
In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat see your heart break
You can see your heart break
That's all that it takes

In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat
In a heartbeat
