Intro

Verse 1

Night has fallen

All is still

The room is empty

I miss you so bad

Verse 2

Sitting in the moonlight

I think of times gone by

Painful memories

Bringing tears to my eyes

Chorus

Thought I heard a heartbeat

But you ain’t here

I thought I heard a heartbeat

Verse 3

Temperature’s rising

The walls are closing in

I can’t stand the feeling

Here it comes again

Repeat chorus:

Thought I heard a heartbeat

But you ain’t here

I thought I heard a heartbeat

Verse 4

Night sounds like silence

Sort of in the air

I hear something breathing

But there ain’t no-one there

Repeat chorus:

I thought I heard a heartbeat

But you ain’t here

Bridge

Close my eyes and a face appears

Faded picture rolling back the years

Holding on to a memory

Same sweet sounds - coming back to me

Harmonica solo

Verse 5

Temperature’s rising

The walls are closing in

I can’t stand that feeling

Here it comes again

I thought I heard a heartbeat

You ain’t here

I thought I heard a heartbeat

You ain’t here

Outro

I thought I heard a heartbeat

I thought I heard a heartbeat

I thought I heard a heartbeat

I thought I heard a heartbeat
