Take Every Beat Of My Heart Lyrics - Singles - Johnny Van Zant

Like rubbing sticks together heats up the stone 

You unveil emotions like strikin' gold 

We could believe it's just a short road 

Or we could take it just as far as it goes 

Take me beyond the border of heaven 

Where we can see no end in sight 

Let the truth remove the distance 

So we can feel it happen here tonight 

Don't let me stand a chance to recover 

I wanna find out what real love is like 

Take me on, baby, I'm waitin' right from the start 

Take every beat of my heart 

You put my dreams in motion when you walk in the room 

You make it so hard to breathe the closer I get to you 

Well, it's all over but to say it's so 

From all directions I'm ready to go 

Take me beyond the border of heaven 

Where we can see no end in sight 

Let the truth remove the distance 

So we can feel it happen here tonight 

Don't let me stand a chance to recover 

I wanna find out what real love is like 

Take me on, I know I can take it 

Finish me off, baby I'm waitin' right from the start 

Take every beat of my heart 

Well, I won't take no for an answer 

'Cause you can feel it when it's right 

Oh, tonight we're goin' the distance 

Oh, right through the heart 

Right from the start 

You took me beyond the border of heaven 

Where we can see no end in sight 

Let the truth remove the distance 

So we can feel it happen here tonight 

Don't let me stand a chance to recover 

I wanna find out what real love is like 

Take me on I know I can take it 

Finish me off, 'cause baby, I'm waitin' right from the start 

Yeah, like a thief in the dark 

Take every beat of my heart 

Take every beat of my heart [unverified]
