I know that you can hear me
But the words fall in the dark
I see that you are burning
It's emblazoned in your heart
You're giving off a light, illuminate the night
I never seen it before
I thought we had it all
But I can tell you needed more
Oh it's wasn't easy love
But I've read between the lines
I know there is no other way
For me to change your mind
As long as you need me, as long as you want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret, you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
'Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of
This ship is slowly drifting
Now I guess we'll never know why
I feel your body calling
For a different kinda love
You're giving off a heat, it feels so cold to me
I've never felt it before
I know that you can hear me
But you're trying to ignore
Oh it wasn't easy but
I read between the lines
I know there is no other way
For me to change your mind
As long as you need me, as long as you want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret, you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
'Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of
So darling, I'm letting you leave to be loved by someone else
Darling, I'm laying my heart on the line
As long as you need me, as long as you want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret, you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
'Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of
