作词 : Gardner, Pedersen The scene is set, we play the parts Boy meets girl, better shelter our hearts We trace the steps that a thousand lovers have danced before Without a sound, we're face to face And every breath is suspended in space Every moment we're together just leaves us wanting more Who-oh, holding back tonight, afraid of tomorrow We both know someting's got to give Gotta make it soul to soul, so come a little closer We're only a heartbeat away From laying it all on the line We're only a heartbeat away It is just a matter of time So tell me that you need me (need me) And I'll come running baby can't you see We're only a heartbeat away It's in the air, it's in our eyes Burning through every cool disguise And pretending that we don't care Pushes us closer to each other's fire It's too late to break the spell that encircles us The chains of destiny are strong, stronger than both of us Come on let's surrender We're only a heartbeat away From laying it all on the line We're only a heartbeat away It is just a matter of time So tell me that you need me (need me) And I'll come running baby can't you see We're only a heartbeat away We've been to scared of taking a fall We're just a heartbeat away from giving our all It's only love, only love Holding back tonight, afraid of tomorrow We both know someting's got to give Gotta make it soul to soul, come on let's surrender We're only a heartbeat away So come on, get closer We're only a heartbeat away, yeah, yeah So tell me that you need me (need me) And I'll come running baby can't you see We're only a heartbeat away From laying it all on the line We're only a heartbeat away It is just a matter of time So baby tell me that you need me (need me) And I'll come running baby can't you see We're only a heartbeat away (We're only a heartbeat away) Only a heartbeat away (Only a heartbeat away) Yeah
