Lyrics

She's a heartbeat

Yeah, she's a heartbeat

She's a door at the end of a dead end street

She's a heartbeat

And footsteps, I hear her footsteps

Here come rumors and lies, here comes my life of crime

I hear footsteps

When the music goes down

And the traffic is stopped and nobody talks at all

When they turn up the town

I hear a heartbeat

And I've shut all the shades

And the radio stops and nobody moves at all

When the city's asleep

I hear a heartbeat

I hear a heartbeat

In the shadows, out in the shadows

It's like walking on glass, it's the end of the show

In the shadows

And sweet dreams

She sells you sweet dreams

It's like movies and trash, where there's always a girl

And she's sweet dreams

When the music goes down

And the traffic is stopped and nobody talks at all

When they turn up the town

I hear a heartbeat

And I've shut all the shades

And the radio stops and nobody moves at all

When the city's asleep

I hear a heartbeat

I hear a heartbeat

She's a heartbeat

Yeah, she's a heartbeat

She's a door at the end of a dead end street

She's a heartbeat

And sweet dreams

She sells you sweet dreams

It's like movies and trash where there's always a girl

And she's sweet dreams

When the music goes down

And the traffic is stopped and nobody talks at all

When they turn up the town

I hear a heartbeat

And I've shut all the shades

And the radio stops and nobody moves at all

When the city's asleep

I hear a heartbeat

Heartbeat

I hear a heartbeat

When they turn off the sound

I hear a heartbeat

Heartbeat

I hear a heartbeat

When the music goes down

I hear a heartbeat

Heartbeat
