Janis Ian - Heart Skip Too Many Beats lyrics

When a heart skips too many beats
When a heart skips too many beats
When a heart skips too many beats
Can't sleep, can't sleep

You say you love me and the truth takes time
Think I need some time away
What kind of truth comes out of lies?
What kind of love comes out of pain?
And now my heart's too hot
I can't start, can't stop
I got no spark, no shot
I can't breath, can't breath

When a heart skips too many beats
When a heart skips too many beats
When a heart skips too many beats
I can't sleep

Never knowing how you're feeling
How much loving how much wheeler-dealing

You say you want to be a friend of mine
I think I have too many friends
You say you want to makе it last this time
You know on whom it all depends
And now my hеart's too hot
I can't start, I can't stop

Need to know just where you're living
What you're taking how much you'll be giving

I think I need a doctor
'cause my heart keeps skipping a beat

Truth and passion melt with time
Faith and reason on the firing line

No more treason no more lies
Help me trust you let me love you tonight

(When a heart skips) I can't sleep
(When a heart beats) I can't breathe
(When a heart beats) I can't sleep
(When a heart beats) I can't breathe
(When a heart beats) I can't sleep
