Every Beat of My Heart - Average White Band

Each day goes by, doing all the simple things I must

It takes most all that I have, waiting only for the nights

We’ll be together, darling

Who knows what little time, we have baby

Let’s make each minute seem, like it could be our last one alive

Hold me real close, till I know you can feel every beat of my heart

Turn out the light, let me stay here tonight

Keeping just as we are

Lying beside you, alone in the dark

Brings me closer to you, darling with every beat of my heart

As daylight comes, the morning steals the shadows from your face

Soon I’ll be far on my way, taking along this memory

With me wherever I go, darling

Whatever little time we share, baby

There’s not a minute, I don’t realise just how much I care

Hold me real close, till I know you can feel every beat of my heart

Turn out the light, let me stay here tonight

Keeping just as we are

Lying beside you, alone in the dark

Brings me closer to you, darling with every beat of my heart

Closer to you darling, with every beat of my heart

Lying beside you, alone in the dark

Brings me closer to you, darling with every beat of my heart

Hold me real close, till I know you can feel every beat of my heart

Turn out the light, let me stay here tonight

Keeping just as we are

Lying beside you, alone in the dark

Brings me closer to you, darling with every beat of my heart
