It seemed like we were always dancing
though the music was sometimes too fast
and sometimes a little too slow
and sometimes we hardly heard it at all

These were times I craved the most
you’d try to turn the volume up
but I resisted this in part
because all I ever wanted
was to listen to your beating heart
