Song Description

First moment of attraction

Lyrics

Go to a party by yourself
Trying to have some fun, talking to everyone,
Telling the same two jokes to each and every person you meet.
And then you slowly turn around,
You see her standing there, and you can't help but stare,
And you wanna talk to her, but your heart forgets to beat.


Chorus:
When the heart forgets to beat
And you find yourself waiting in an empty room
Hoping that she'll come back soon and hoping she'll stay
So you get up your nerve to speak,
But your hands get sweaty and your knees get weak
That's just what happens when the heart forgets to beat


She's not just any other girl.
She's got a kind of look that really gets you hooked,
And when she grabs your hand,
You start shaking from your head to your feet.
And then she whispers in your ear,
"I think it's time to go", and you just can't say no,
but then you go to kiss her, and your heart forgets to beat. (chorus)


Break:
Just when you thought that love was gone for good,
Some woman comes along to change your mind (chorus)
