The Beating of My Heart
In the silence of the night
Knowledge sheds her glowing light
And the beams of reverent dreams
Smooth the cutting shattered screams
As they echo through my mind
I’m unsettled; yes, I am
As these thoughts through my head swam
Around and ’round they whirled and twirled
They made no sense as they unfurled
All I can feel is hollow fright
This indecision’s killing me
I’m all alone; I’m lost at sea
All I can do is think of you
The only one worth running to
So you could hold me for awhile
I need to lie down in my bed
If just to rest my weary head
My heart is breaking so and I
Feel such pain I feel I’ll die
To breathe another breath it’s true
And if tomorrow’s sun won’t rise
If I don’t see your lovely eyes
I’ll have no chance to say how much
I’ve longed to know the very touch
Of your sweet hand in mine
I’ll ask the angels up above
To whisper down to my true Love
Within the falling rain
The harmonious refrain
Of the beating of my heart…
