heart skip too many beats

Singer:janis ian

when a heart skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

i can't sleep

i 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

i can't breath

when a heart skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

i can't sleep

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 make it last this time

you know on whom it all depends

and now my heart'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 skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

when a heart skip too many beats

i can't sleep

i can't sleep
