Another summer,
Another vacation is over,
It is September now with the sun and the smell of the clover,
Down by the gate we sit and watch all our friends go by,
And pretend we don't hear the bell that rings through the summer sky.

I was happy with the kisses she gave me,
It is just that happy was all she made me,
Happy that was until I saw you.

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?
You hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour.
Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?
How could I help but admire her beauty,
Standing on the line between desire and duty,
Heartbeat, Heartbeat, it will end in tears.

I need a lover when love is such dangerous place to be,
Oh, if we were meant for each other then why don't you answer me?
Don't keep me waiting, you know I long to be by your side,
We could even be together tonight.

I was happy with the kisses she gave me,
But now there's nothing on earth can save me,
Why should I care when I can't have you?

Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you fail me now?
You hurt me, desert me in my darkest hour.
Heartbeat, heartbeat, why do you keep me here?
How could I help but admire her beauty,
Standing on the line between desire and duty,
Heartbeat, Heartbeat, it will end in tears.
