Rhythm of my Heart lyrics

Across the street the river runs

Down in the gutter life is slipping away

Let me still exist in another place

Running under cover

Of a helicopter blade

The flames are getting higher

In effigy

Burning down the bridges of my memory

Love may still be alive

Somewhere someday

Where they're downing only deer

A hundred steel towns away

Oh, the rhythm of my heart

Is beating like a drum

With the words "I love you"

Rolling off my tongue

No, never will I roam

For I know my place is home

Where the ocean meets the sky

I'll be sailing

Photographs and kerosene

Light up my darkness

Light it up

Light it up

I can still feel the touch

Of your thin blue jeans

Running down the alley

I've got my eyes all over you, baby

Oh, baby

Oh, the rhythm of my heart

Is beating like a drum

With the words "I love you"

Rolling off my tongue

No, never will I roam

For I know my place is home

Where the ocean meets the sky

I'll be sailing

Oh, yeah

Oh, I've got lightning in my veins

Shifting like the handle

Of a slot machine

Love may still exist

In another place

I'm just yanking back the handle

No expression on my face

Oh, the rhythm of my heart

Is beating like a drum

With the words "I love you"

Rolling off my tongue

No, never will I roam

For I know my place is home

Where the ocean meets the sky

I'll be sailing

Oh, the rhythm of my heart

Is beating like a drum

With the words "I love you"

Rolling off my tongue

No, never will I roam

For I know my place is home

Where the ocean meets the sky

I'll be sailing

The rhythm of my heart

Is beating like a drum

With the words "I love you"

Rolling off my tongue

No, never will I roam

For I know my place is home

Where the ocean meets the sky

I'll be sailing
