ann magnuson - heartbeat lyrics

[spoken]
his name
was jobriath
and the story you’re about to hear
is true
and if he’s up there listening
i want him to know…

[sung]
you’re a voice
on the street
you’re the faces
that i meet

all day my life
is keeping time
time with your heartbeat
time with your heartbeat
every day

it’s no use
to run and hide
you’ll be running running running
by my side

all day my life
is keeping time
time with your heartbeat
time with your heartbeat
every day (every day)
[spoken]
once upon a time there was a lost boy named jobriath
and like all lost boys before him
he had a dream
to achieve
pop superstardom [echo effect]
but alas his dream was not to be
oh it wasn’t for a lack of trying
jobriath had all the necessary ingredients
talent, androgynous good looks
wit, charm
and an excessive amount of hype that no one could possibly live up to

for like icarus
he flew too close to the sun
and there was nowhere to go
but down
down down down down down
six feet under to be exact
ridiculed, dismissed, ignored
but not forgotten
for though he is no longer with us
he lives on
in the albums he left behind
full of pretty pretty songs
and when you hear them i promise that they will
[sung]
keep time with your heartbeat
time with your heartbeat
every
day
