Heartbeat Lyrics

Lost the night I met you
long ago and no exchange was made
occasionally see you across the table
enough to get a glance but not a name

But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue
and tell you I don't know you
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat

Oh I was mistaken
to try and get your essence off my mind
your elegance, your faults, the sweet surrender
give me all of you to keep inside

But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue
and tell you I don't know you
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat

If you won't risk all the up and down
over your limits, outside your bounds
then all you'll feel are the rusted springs
not the simple things
listen, listen, listen, listen for now

But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue
and tell you I don't know you
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat

Lost the night I met you 
long ago and no exchange was made
occasionally see you across the table
enough to get a glance but not a name
 
But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue 
and tell you I don't know you 
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat
 
Oh I was mistaken
to try and get your essence off my mind
your elegance, your faults,  the sweet surrender
give me all of you to keep inside
 
But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue 
and tell you I don't know you 
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat
 
If you won't risk all the up and down
over your limits, outside your bounds
then all you'll feel are the rusted springs
not the simple things
listen, listen, listen, listen for now
 
But now you woke up and I found you
waiting for a hand to hold your key
I come out of the blue 
and tell you I don't know you 
but I can feel your heart beat
I can feel your heartbeat

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
