Lyrics
It Doesn't Beat For Me Lyrics
Oh your eyes don't dance the way they use to when I walk
through the door
And your smile just pretends ah like you've been through all of
this before
Oh I guess the forever is no longer in your forever more um
It doesn't beat for me, it doesn't beat for me
You use to touch me as if time were standing still for you and I
And every moon and every open sky were filled each night to
guide our hearts through our many lives Um I don't know
where I'm going oh but now I realize
It doesn't beat for me, it doesn't beat for me
Oh so when do you know that your doors have closed upon you
Uh, uh , uh when do you feel that you can return to life again
No oh, how can you go on to believing that tomorrow that this
pain you have will end
Oh this pain you have will end, this pain you have will end, this
pain you have will end
Solo
Oh your smile seems endless still when I close my eyes though
a tear still falls somedays
I thought that now I would have forgotten so many things that
you use to say
Oh who says that love is not eternal who said another love will
come your way
I don't know who they might be all I know, all I know, all I know,
all I know is it doesn't beat for me oh no it doesn't beat for me,
no it doesn't beat for me
