Janis Ian — Heart Skip Too Many Beats

[Chorus] 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 [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Refrain 1] Never knowing How you're feeling How much loving How much wheeler-dealing [Verse 2] 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 [Refrain 2] Need to know just Where you're living What you're taking How much you'll be giving [Bridge] I think I need a doctor, 'cause my heart keeps skipping a beat [Instrumental] [Refrain 3] Truth and passion Melt with time Faith and reason On the firing line [Refrain 4] No more treason No more lies Help me trust you Let me love you tonight [Outro] (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
