(peter staines)
Night has fallen
All is still
The room is empty
I miss you so bad
Sitting in the moonlight
I think of times gone by
Painful memories
Bringing tears to my eyes
I thought i heard a heartbeat
But you ain’t here
I thought i heard a heartbeat
Temperature’s rising
The walls are closing in
I can’t stand the feeling
Here it comes again
I thought i heard a heartbeat
But you ain’t here
I thought i heard a heartbeat
Night sounds like silence
Sorrow(?) in the air
I hear something breathing
But there ain’t no-one there
I thought i heard a heartbeat
But you ain’t here
Close my eyes and a face appears
Faded picture rolling back the years
Holding on to a memory
Same sweet sound – coming back to me
– harmonica solo –
Temperature’s rising
The walls are closing in
I can’t stand that feeling
Here it comes again
I thought i heard a heartbeat
But you ain’t here
I thought i heard a heartbeat
But you ain’t here
I thought i heard a heartbeat
I thought i heard a heartbeat
I thought i heard a heartbeat…
