I know that you can hear me
But the words fall in the dark
I see that you are burning
It's emblazoned in your heart
You're giving off a light, illuminate the night
I never seen it before
I thought we had it all, but I can tell you needed more

Oh it's wasn't easy love, but I've read between the lines
I know there is no other way, for me to change your mind

As long as ya need me, as long as ya want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret; you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of

This ship is slowly drifting
Now I guess we'll never know why
I feel your body calling
For a different kinda love
You're giving off a heat, it feels so cold to me
I've never felt it before
I know that you can hear me, but you're trying to ignore

Oh it wasn't easy but, I read between the lines
I know there is no other way, for me to change your mind

As long as ya need me, as long as ya want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret; you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of

So darling
I'm letting you leave to be loved by somebody else
Darling, I'm laying my heart on the line

As long as ya need me, as long as ya want me
I'll be the heart beating in your chest
You got a secret; you're trying to keep it
I ain't the one playing second best
So I sacrificed our broken love
Cause I'm not the one you're thinking of
