Heartbeat
Now this is not necessarily based on a true story
But I'm pretty sure that somebody
Has been through this at one point in their life
I mean, you just gotta learn how to apologize
How to say I'm sorry and never go to bed mad
Never leave the house mad
â€~Coz you never know
If that person's gon' be taken away from you
And that's just real
I want you to listen to this little story
I call this â€~My heartbeat'
Oh, how precious a heartbeat is, listen
Should've told you â€~bout the feelin'
I had before you walked out
I was all sad about our argument
I cussed and stormed out
Used to blow up the words wit my hands
In your face, callin' you this and that
Talked so reckless â€~coz I thought
That I was payin' you back
Then my phone rang, I thought it was you
But it was your boy, said it got crazy at the club
It was wildin' then somethin' went wrong
I knew by his tone that you was gone
Mean things ran through my head
â€~Coz I thought it was my fault and I
Wish I could kiss you and tell you I love you
I miss you, and I want to just tell you I'm sorry
It'd make me so complete if I can hear your heartbeat
Wish I could see you again
Don't know when we'll meet again
I'd give anythin' to hear you breathe again
It'd put my mind at ease if I can hear your heartbeat
Why did I keep so many things about us bottled inside?
Why not tell you I found out that I was havin' your child?
But now it's too late â€~coz you're so gone
Why did you have to go to the club
Why couldn't you stay home?
Why couldn't we just get down the room and make love?
Why did I leave the message that I think it cost you your life?
Wish I
Wish I could kiss you and tell you I love you
I miss you, and I want to just tell you I'm sorry
It'd make me so complete if I can hear your heartbeat
Wish I could see you again
Don't know when we'll meet again
I'd give anything to hear you breathe again
It'd put my mind at ease if I can hear your heartbeat
I started to question God
Why'd He take you away from me this way?
I'm about to have your baby, baby, baby
But my pastor said that this isn't a mistake
That he knows God cannot make
But I need to know, can you hear me?
I can hear you
Baby, I'm sorry I left you this way
But He needed me, that's why He brought me to His place
I just wished I could've said goodbye
And kissed you before they took my life away
But promise me that you'll take care of my child
Let him or her know Daddy didn't mean to walk out
And remember that I love you, baby
I'm watchin' over you and our little baby
Wish I could kiss you and tell you I love you
I miss you, and I want to just tell you I'm sorry
It'd make me so complete if I can hear your heartbeat
Wish I could see you again
Don't know when we'll meet again
I'd give anything to hear you breathe again
It'd put my mind at ease if I can hear your heartbeat
Wish I could kiss you and tell you I love you
I miss you, and I want to just tell you I'm sorry
It'd make me so complete if I can hear your heartbeat
Wish I could see you again
Don't know when we'll meet again
I'd give anything to hear you breathe again
It'd put my mind at ease if I can hear your heartbeat again
Oh, baby, I love you
