Lyrics

Where Did the Beat Go?

[Intro]

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Ba da ba bum

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Ba da ba bum

Ba da ba bum

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Verse 1]

I can hear planes

Flying over my head

Just hours before

You occupied my bed

In our darkness

We conjured up sunlight

In our haste, our need, our thirst

We lost our sight

But I was inspired

Tracing the lines on your face

To the poetry the first time

I heard your name

When I trip from your lips

My heart was like a kick-drum

And it silenced the guilt

I wasn't raised to hurt anyone

[Chorus]

Uh oh, does he know

That I'm lying in the afterglow?

That I'm lying but I can't go, can't say no?

Make him think he's crazy

While his paranoia grows

What he should be asking

Is "where did our love go?"

Then I wouldn't be basking

In another man's afterglow

Where did the beat go? (In another man's afterglow)

Where is the beat?

Where did the beat go?

[Verse 2]

So how do I justify

To the judge and the jury

The voices in my head

That caused this fury

Never had to play

With matches to start a fire

But it got so cold

And I thought I'd forgotten desire

I was your concubine

And your Madonna

You couldn't see anything

Behind your baby's mama

How long is lonely supposed to last?

I was naked and waiting

For you to come back

Mm

[Chorus]

Uh oh, does he know

That I'm lying in the afterglow?

That I'm lying but I can't go, can't say no?

Make him think he's crazy

While his paranoia grows

What he should be asking

Is "where did our love go?"

Then I wouldn't be basking

In another man's afterglow

Where did the beat go? (In another man's afterglow)

Where is the beat?

Where did the beat go?

[Bridge]

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

There's a cause and effect

Although I took the steps

I dove off the bridge

'Cause I had nothing left

All I ever wanted was you

And in the absence of you

I fell through

[Chorus]

Uh oh, does he know

That I'm lying in the afterglow?

That I'm lying but I can't go, can't say no?

Make him think he's crazy

While his paranoia grows

What he should be asking

Is "where did our love go?"

Then I wouldn't be basking

In another man's afterglow

Where did the beat go?

(In another man's afterglow)

Where is the beat?

Where did the beat go?

[Outro]

Where is the beat?

Where did the beat go?

(In another man's afterglow)

Where is the beat?

Where did the beat go?

(Where did the love go?)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Where did the beat go?

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Where did the love go?
