there's an awful beating in my chest
and yet, strangly
i feel blessed
because i know it came from seeing you today
i feel it on my ribs and in my lungs
and it's as loud as an indian drum
and if i dance
i bet i just might bring the rain

you say you've got your doubts
and our time has just run out
you swear that you can do without me now
you love to live your life
counting mile marker signs
if your feelings were like mine
you'd make time

there's a wretched shaking in my knees
and yet strangly
i feel pleased
because i know it came from seeing you today
i feel it in my muscles and my bones
and yet somehow i find strength to make the tones
that i need to stay sane

you say you've got your doubts
and our time has just run out
you swear that you could do without me now
you love to live your life
counting dashes and state lines
if your feelings were like mine
you'd make time

you'd make time for all the useless things
but you know you mean the world to me
you'd make time if your head was where your heart is
and i'll know that i'll hold it
because you told me you'd never lie to me.
