Till our hearts beat as one

Like a watch with a missing gear
My heart hasn’t beat right all year
It can’t keep time
With this world of mine
Try as it might
It’s a fruitless fight
Spring, summer, winter, fall
It keeps trying through it all
But it won’t find that rhythm
Till our hearts beat as one
It has a need
To follow a lead
Till our hearts beat as one
It can’t do it alone
No rhythm of it’s own
Till our hearts beat as one
When I’m walking, it’s running
When I’m running, it’s sleeping
Can’t stay in tune with this life I’m leading
When I feel
It goes stale
It’s always busy
It keeps on looking
For one to lead the way
It keeps looking
Till our hearts beat as one
It has a need
To follow a lead
Till our hearts beat as one
Can’t do it alone
No rhythm it’s own
Till our hearts beat as one
It searches and waits
With all faith in fate
And no room for hate
Till our hearts beat as one
It will try to fly
Across the endless sky
Till it finds the one it called mine
Gladly set to beat
Every beat till the end of its life
For if only to get
To beat its last few beats
In time with the one it once called wife
Till our hearts beat as one
Can’t do it alone
No rhythm of it’s own
till our hearts beat as one
