Melissa Etheridge
The Beating of Your Heart
Seeking love I found a fire
A living fire coursing through my veins
I had arrived where I had started
Wishing I could do it all again
[Chorus]
The beating of your heart
Should hurt no one
And love can only make you stronger
Closing my eyes I see the window
Across the wire I hear a laugh
You were broke I couldn't fix you
Now where is my army that cut you in half
[Chorus]
And I can't take it any longer
I am just beginning to understand this truth
That you can't stop the wheel
Yeah, it just keeps on turning
And if you start a fire
You must endure the burning
The beating of your heart
The beating of your heart
The beating of your heart
Should hurt no one
[Chorus: x2]
