Lyrics

Heart Skipped A Beat

Please don't say we're done
When I'm not finished
I could give so much more
Make you feel, like never before
Welcome, they said welcome to the floor
It's been a while
And you've found someone better
But I've been waiting too long to give this up
The more I see, I understand
But sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
Sometimes, I still need you
And I was struggling to get in
Left waiting outside your door
I was sure
You'd gimme more
No need to come to me
When I can make it all the way to you
You made it clear
You weren't near
Near enough for me
Heart skipped a beat
And when I caught it you were out of reach
But I'm sure, I'm sure
You've heard it before
Heart skipped a beat
And when I caught it you were out of reach
But I'm sure, I'm sure
You've heard it before
Heart skipped a beat
And when I caught it you were out of reach
But I'm sure, I'm sure
You've heard it before
Heart skipped a beat
And when I caught it you were out of reach
But I'm sure, I'm sure
You've heard it before
