Only a Heartbeat Away

The scene is set, we play the parts

Boy meets girl, better shelter our hearts

We trace the steps that a thousand lovers have danced before

Without a sound, we're face to face

And every breath is suspended in space

Every moment we're together just leaves us wanting more

Who-oh, holding back tonight, afraid of tomorrow

We both know someting's got to give

Gotta make it soul to soul, so come a little closer

We're only a heartbeat away

From laying it all on the line

We're only a heartbeat away

It is just a matter of time

So tell me that you need me (need me)

And I'll come running baby can't you see

We're only a heartbeat away

It's in the air, it's in our eyes

Burning through every cool disguise

And pretending that we don't care

Pushes us closer to each other's fire

It's too late to break the spell that encircles us

The chains of destiny are strong, stronger than both of us

Come on let's surrender

We're only a heartbeat away

From laying it all on the line

We're only a heartbeat away

It is just a matter of time

So tell me that you need me (need me)

And I'll come running baby can't you see

We're only a heartbeat away

We've been to scared of taking a fall

We're just a heartbeat away from giving our all

It's only love, only love

Holding back tonight, afraid of tomorrow

We both know someting's got to give

Gotta make it soul to soul, come on let's surrender

We're only a heartbeat away

So come on, get closer

We're only a heartbeat away, yeah, yeah

So tell me that you need me (need me)

And I'll come running baby can't you see

We're only a heartbeat away

From laying it all on the line

We're only a heartbeat away

It is just a matter of time

So baby tell me that you need me (need me)

And I'll come running baby can't you see

We're only a heartbeat away

(We're only a heartbeat away) Only a heartbeat away

(Only a heartbeat away) Yeah
