Beat of a Heart - Scandal, Edward Van Halen

The heat of the sun

Was a little too much today

Love on the wing

Flew so high it just melted away

So sweet on the run

So little time to make you see

What can’t be undone

Was maybe never meant to be But sometimes a fool

Gets lucky and wins

Sometimes the innocent pay

For an old man’s sin

But when the amber light

Of daylight’s gone

All I wanna feel

Is the beat of a heart

The street that night

Had a little too much to say

And the look in your eyes

It was a little too far away

But sometimes a fool

Gets lucky and wins

Sometimes the innocent pay

For an old man’s sin

Sometimes a fool

Gets lucky and wins

Sometimes the innocent pay

For an old man’s sin

But when the amber light

Of daylight’s gone

All I wanna feel

Is the beat of a heart

Just a little life ticking away

The beat of a heart

You come take me far away

Sometimes a fool

Gets lucky and wins

Sometimes the innocent pay

For an old man’s sin

But when the tears are dark

And we stand as one

All I wanna feel

And when the amber light

Of daylight’s gone

All I wanna hear

Is the beat of a heart

The beat of a heart

You come and take me far away
