You know the lines
You got the chords
And now the congregation’s hanging on your every word
Don't have to be so cynical
And if I walk into that sea
I'd only find the waves are pushing down on me
To wash me back onto the shore
Anticipation got us racing through this dead end conversation
Going round in circles again
And now I'm making you a promise
Wouldn't take it to be honest
If only
I hear your heart beat loud
One day I'll make you proud
I hear your heart
It's beating louder
One day I'll show you how
I'll tell you this
I'll make a bet
Those better days we haven't even seen them yet
Just close your eyes and I'll see you there
If love is meant to define us
Inspire us
Then tell me why are we so silent
I think that love is more like a tool sharpened over time
Anticipation got us racing through this dead end conversation
Going round in circles again
And now I'm making you a promise
Wouldn't take it to be honest
If only
I hear your heart beat loud
One day I'll make you proud
I hear your heart
It's beating louder
One day I'll show you how
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
I hear your heart beat loud
One day I'll make you proud
I hear your heart
It's beating louder
One day I'll show you how
I hear your heart beat loud
One day I'll make you proud
I hear your heart
It's beating louder
One day I'll show you how
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
Thought you had me
Well I got you
Thought you had me
Well I got you now
