Dani Shay - The Beating Lyrics






I was checking sound
When you first came around
And I was staring at you
Through the mirrors in the room

And I wish that I could have seen your face when you first looked up
But you shot me one of your little gazed and that was enough

For me to know
That you were a place I had to go
And I'll never understand why people try so hard
To get away from the beating of their own hearts

I was reading signs
Like hand motions but less defined
And you were reading mine
So we figured it all out at the same time

And I think that I could have broken down on your couch that night
When you spoke to me with your eyes and they looked just right

For me to know
That you were a place I had to go
And I'll never understand why people try so hard
To get away from the beating of their own hearts

Symphonies are playing and are never being heard
Birds are chirping too, but are drowning in our words
Words that don't mean shit but are weighing us all down
Just so we can pay for a ticket off the ground

Oh, we go to new locations in search of something true
Or just to get away from the things we always knew
And everything we do is a reflection of our past
Beliefs that we adopted under questions never asked

So now I'm making sound
While you dance, baby, dance all around
And I'm still staring at you, oh
I can't help it, God, I love the way you move

And I think that I could have scared you off if you weren't so brave
'Cuz you silenced your fearful thoughts and that is the way

That I came to know
That you are a place I have to go
And I'll never understand why people try so hard
To get away from the beating of their own hearts
