Heart Beats

Heart Beats

You're playing it like a banjo
Plucking my heart strings
In time with it's beating
A-thump-a-thump-a-thump

This game you have planned though
is doing other things
I know that I can beat it
A-thump-a-thump-a-thump

I've showed all that I can show
And I wish that I had wings
So then I could beat them
A-thump-a-thump-a-thump

With no wings though, I ran from you
The soles of my feet sting
On the cement they're beating
A-thump-a-thump-a-thump
