You hold my heart tight in your hands
Only it's too far away for me to reach
You love and cherish it too much
It can hardly b-r-e-a-t-h-e
But it finds you irresistible (I could care less)
It tries to beat, beat, beat
For that is its own true power
Pumping blood that's all it does
And you've taken it away from me
No longer in my reach
You love and cherish it too much
No longer beat, beat, breathing
