Heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart is playing stricks on me And it's building bricks on me I can't break through And I can't face you My world is turning slowly now But it's burning up somehow I need some time To know what's right Cause it's only in the quiet that I feel some relief I'm trying hard not to resist the joy Don't listen to me I'm being paranoid I might try hard but it's too hard to avoid My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart is always first to know And as the feeling grows I can't deny Push those thoughts aside My world is full of loveliness But I focus on the stress My heart says go But my brain says no And it's only in the quiet that I hear myself breathe I'm trying hard not to resist the joy Don't listen to me I'm being paranoid I might try hard but it's too hard to avoid My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat Oh, I know this time cause it's physical My blood has stopped and I am breathless as well But I need a minute to convince myself Cause it's only in the quiet that I know what to feel I'm trying hard not to resist the joy Don't listen to me I'm being paranoid I might try hard but it's too hard to avoid My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat I'm trying hard not to resist the joy Don't listen to me I'm being paranoid I might try hard but it's too hard to avoid My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat My heart skips a beat
