Heart Keeps Beating - Mariha

It ain’t slow, it ain’t quick

It’s got no rhythm in it

It ain’t sane, it ain’t sick

It’s got no meaning

Not brave, not polite

Barely fair, rarely nice

It ain’t fun, it don’t fit

And I ain’t gonna go for it

But its got you wrong (?)

That’s why it worked so long

And I stopped trying hard

To find out how it got this far

You’ve been twisting my feelings

To the last best point that I’m leaving (?)

I let you go

And the times I’ve been dreaming

Was not your face but a ghost I’ve been seeing

I hope you know I let you go

And my heart keeps beating

It ain’t lost, it don’t live

It makes no promises

And it don’t stand, it don’t sit

It’s got no home-base

Not healthy, not light

Always late, never tight

It don’t run, it ain’t rich

And I ain’t gonna fight for it

What if I miss you?

You’ve been twisting my feelings

To the last best part that I’m leaving

I let you go

And the times I’ve been dreaming

Was not your face but a ghost I’ve been seeing

I hope you know I let you go

And my heart keeps beating

Natural heat and the horse that you ride is asleep (?)

Impatiently weak for all passions and not only me

And what if I miss you?

And what if I miss you?

But its got you wrong

That’s why it worked so long

You’ve been twisting my feelings

To the last best point that I’m leaving

I let you go

And the times I’ve been dreaming

Was not your face but a ghost I’ve been seeing

I hope you know I let you go

And my heart keeps beating

(It ain’t slow, it ain’t quick)

My heart keeps beating

(It ain’t sane, it ain’t sick)

My heart keeps beating

(It ain’t lost, it don’t live)

And my heart keeps beating

(And it don’t stand, it don’t sit)
