Title: THIS BEATING HEART (Benny/Doc/Mabian)
Post by: Benny on February 12, 2011, 01:19:20 PM

Here is a torch song from the Misplaced Texans. My thanks to Doc and Mario for their very tasteful contributions. :)

THIS BEATING HEART

Hear the beat of a heart in despair
Hard to breathe as I say my last prayer
When I try to start something new
Don't know why it's been so hard to do

Sunny days they just don't seem to last
And I can't move away from my shattered past

CHORUS
Since you've gone can you hear this beating heart
Crying all day long; it gets louder in the dark
As life goes on it really doesn't know what to do
This beating heart is still in love with you

Words I speak don't say what they mean
Talk is cheap when it don't mean a thing
Force a smile to cover the mood
But my eyes they can't hide the truth

Of the sound that tortures my soul
From a heart that can't seem to ever let you go

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Everynight, everyday
This beating heart keeps pounding out your name
Can't bring back yesterday
When will it realize this crying's all in vain

CHORUS
