lyrics
Right from the start
This was never fair and equal
This was never fair and equal
No way
I wait for your love
Like a desert waits for water
Like a desert waits for water
But I know that it won't ever rain
I am your heart
I am beating, I am bleeding, I am feeding you
Fast as you need me to
I never stop, never quit, never skip a beat
No I never sleep
Cuz I am your heart
I am yours all the time
I am driving you
Hold up the sky for you
Work all alone in the dark
Just to pull you through
So why am I the one who needs you?
Say what you want
You were never really in this
You were never really in this
Were you
I waited for your love
This was never going nowhere
This was never going nowhere
Now I know that you won't ever change
You'll never feel the same
I am your heart
I am beating, I am bleeding, I am feeding you
Fast as you need me to
I never stop, never quit, never miss a beat
No I never sleep
Cuz I am your heart
I am yours all the time
I am driving you
Hold up the sky for you
Work all alone in the dark
Just to pull you through
So why am I the one who needs you?
I am your heart
I'm the one that needs you
