Heartbeat - Dr Feelgood

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…
