Split Enz - Giant Heartbeat (N Finn N Griggs) Lyrics

Heartbeat

Bearing down

On our world

It never sleeps



Feel like a Zephyr harmonizing with a flute

Notes are rising in familiar twos and threes

The time of yearning is the same at any age

The back is bending and the sky is growing pale



Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike

Hearts and souls move together in time



One step forward is a leap for all mankind

Old man river smiles on all he leaves behind

Ooh when temptation brings you down

I say you better spread yourself around

Red limbs, my body's torn apart

The boy's hand will squeeze the giant's heart



Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike

Hearts and souls move together in time

If anybody's listening, a giant heartbeat is fading



Fire burns

Water drowns

Hate kills

Our homes

Faith helps

Love heals



Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike

Hearts and souls move together in time

If anybody's listening

If anybody's listening

Is anybody listening, a giant heartbeat is fading
