Lyrics Hanging On A Heartbeat - The Hooters

Hanging on a heartbeat
Hanging on a heartbeat
Hanging on a heartbeat
You know you can′t waste time when your hanging on a heartbeat

You change your mind like the weather
You promise sunshine but it looks like rain
A simple "no" would be better
But you just keep me hanging on again

Hanging on a heartbeat, this ain't no quizgame you know
Hanging on a heartbeat, come on girl,
You move way to slow
Hanging on a heartbeat, its a hot seat
You gotta give it up or let it go
′Cause life's to short to be hanging on a heartbeat

I lay my cards out on the table
But you've got aces hidden up your sleeve
I′m ready, willing, and able
But I′m a joker when it's time to leave

How many nights have I wasted
How many dreams have I lost in vain
Oh, but I like the little I′ve tasted
Don't leave me hanging on a heartbeat

Hanging on a heartbeat

My heart is lying here naked
All that I ask is you believe in me
We′ve got the power to make it
Oh,we'll say good-night or we can let it be

Hanging on a heartbeat
Can′t you see how hard I've tried
Hanging on a Heartbeat,
Can't you see th fire in my eyes
Hanging on a heartbeat, its a hot seat
You better pick it up or leave it behind
′Cause you can′t waste time when you're hanging on a heartbeat
