You're cold as ice, you don't play nice And you leave me hanging on your line Lost, alone, strung out to dry I always pray for one more day And I play the fool for just a taste It's never enough anyway But your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Yeah you're mean and cruel with the things you say But your heartbeat gives you away You're never soft Hard at all costs But you cut your nose just to spite your face Who ya fooling anyway Your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Yeah you're mean and cruel with the game you play But your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Pounding in your neck, throbbing through your veins Your heartbeat gives you away When time stands still Paused at your will Will you break the spell or leave me unfulfilled I know still Your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Yeah you're mean and cruel with what you won't say But your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Your heartbeat gives you away Pounding in your neck, throbbing through your veins Your heartbeat gives you away And I'll place the bet that you're gonna stay No matter how many times you stray Your tell tale heart has left you betrayed Your heartbeat gives you away
