In a Heartbeat
In the smallest movement of your hand
In a silence
In the wonderful cover of night
Under blankets and sheets where I sat at your feet in that intoxicating place
Where desired unspoken and speak
with the dull hear the blue off the muted TV
lines we've drawn and let down
cause we can just stand down to reason
In this moment
With a force-field of brazen uncertainty
In a friend's house
In the living room by shaky candlelight
Waiting on a friend to leave
Now your legs lay around my lap
My hands rest on your knees
Pendulum pulse in my ears like a drunken symphony
On a fence stumbling beside you to reunite this task and treaty
with courage and clumsiness with bravery and stupidity
Woah! You gotta watch your step!
You're breaking a heart, baby how can what you get
Woah! You gotta watch your step!
As your moving past moments that I cannot forget
So bade your actions and holding your debts
Under time that we sold between loss and regret!
There's an album in my head of the songs that we sang
I can't quite get the verse and the chorus seems tame
Every other day or so I google image search your name
But there's only one picture and it's always the same
I have memorized the lyrics
I've downloaded the sound .mp3
Printed out the bass tabs
Fed my way around the key
I'm working on a version to jog your memory
Although, maybe a jog sounds ambitious,
Maybe we should stop,
Woah! You better watch your step!
You're breaking a heart, baby, how can one you get
Woah! You better watch your step!
As you're moving past moments that I cannot forget,
Woah! You better watch your step!
You better watch your step!
