Ever since you closed the door on me
You've left a hole where my heart used to be
I hold my breath, and wait until
The time will come when there's no time to kill
You'd better stop, and listen what my heart has to say
It's the same old pounding each and every day
Waiting for you
There's nothing left for me to do, but the

But the beat of my heart
Hoping for the words to come
That say that I need you
The beat of my heart
Waiting for the wall you've built has gone

Without you baby I'm a man alone
Holding on to nothing since you've been gone
There's no direction that I can take
Without facing every mistake that I've made
So stop wasting all this precious time
If you'll let me be your lever I can let you be mine
It's all up to you
Until there's nothing left that I can listen to, but the

But the beat of my heart
Hoping for the words to come
That say that I need you
The beat of my heart
Waiting for the wall you've built has gone

There is no way that I can hide
The love that's there for you, so deep inside
Beat of my heart
Beat of my heart
Beat of my heart
Beat of my heart
You'd better stop and listen to be

Beat of my heart
Hoping for the words to come
That say that I need you
The beat of my heart
Waiting for the wall you've built has gone
