Heartbeats

You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat As of late I have been trying to behave myself I've been struggling taming the beast of burdening someone else But your patience is a shining light on the path ahead I just need a little more time to trust the things you say And I'm telling you that You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat What do you see in me? I must have been born blind I rarely see things that I like I don't mean to dismiss the way you feel about me It's all in my head, it's playing tricks you see And I want to believe that everything about me you say is true But that's at odds with my own self image, it goes askew Just give me more time, I know my mind, it'll come around soon Until then I'll keep listening to you You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat I want to believe that everything about me you say is true But that's at odds with my own self image, it goes askew Just give me more time, I know my mind, it'll come around soon Until then I'll keep listening to you You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat You speak honestly, speak so softly Your ear on my chest hears my heartbeat
