Lyrics

While My Heart Is Still Beating

All of those people

Everywhere

Ever so needing

Where's it all leading

Tell me where

Nothing insincere

I'd better have pity

I'd better go easy

I never will lay down

While my heart is still beating

Where's it all leading

Walk on air

Am I still dreaming

Where's it all leading

Words to spare

Lost in their meaning

I'd better be strong now

I'd better stop dreaming

My heart has flown away now

Will it never stop bleeding?
