What Makes My Heart Beat?
A shock sent through my system,
Down my spine and through my limbs.
My stomach fills up with butterflies,
And any pain I was feeling dims.
A smile that stops my heartbeat.
Your soft lips part to speak.
"Don't panic love,
You'll always have me"
And we're the only two around,
As far as I can see.
This is why my heart beats.
It's your fault I never sleep.
I toss. I turn.
Being away from you brings pain, leaves burns.
Memories fly through my head.
So anxious to see your face again.
A disease only your presence can heal.
Further proof that these feelings are real.
Your laugh, your smile,
Your hands over mine,
Keeping me warm,
My light in this dark storm.
The reason I wake,
Knowing I'll see you today.
Your arms wrap around me,
And I feel safe.
This is why my heart beats.
It's your fault I never sleep.
I toss. I turn.
Being away from you brings pain, leaves burns.
Memories float through my head.
So anxious to see your face again.
A disease only your presence can heal.
Further proof that these feelings are real.
Your soft touch on my skin,
Cool breath on my face,
A chance to feel again,
Someone I cannot replace,
A kiss on my cheek,
It's your love I seek.
This is why my heart beats.
Down my spine and through my limbs.
My stomach fills up with butterflies,
And any pain I was feeling dims.
A smile that stops my heartbeat.
Your soft lips part to speak.
"Don't panic love,
You'll always have me"
And we're the only two around,
As far as I can see.
This is why my heart beats.
It's your fault I never sleep.
