Verse 1 I still catch myself turning around When I hear a voice that sounds like yours Still expecting you to walk back in Through a door that's closed for good Some habits never leave us Some hopes don't fade away No matter how much time has passed You're still a part of every day Pre-Chorus And though you're not beside me now I still feel you somehow Chorus You're only a heartbeat away A whisper inside my veins A shadow inside the sunlight A memory I can't escape And though the miles keep growing And the years keep drifting by You're only a heartbeat away Every time I close my eyes Verse 2 The world keeps moving forward But some pieces stay behind Like photographs inside a drawer I can't quite leave behind I know I should stop wondering About roads we didn't take But every "what if" still lingers Like a storm I cannot shake Pre-Chorus Some people leave your life But never leave your soul Chorus You're only a heartbeat away A whisper inside my veins A shadow inside the sunlight A memory I can't escape And though the miles keep growing And the years keep drifting by You're only a heartbeat away Every time I close my eyes Post-Chorus Whoa-oh-oh, still near Whoa-oh-oh, still here Bridge Maybe love doesn't disappear Maybe it changes shape Maybe some connections stay alive Long after they break And maybe that's okay Final Chorus You're only a heartbeat away Not gone, just far away Living somewhere in the spaces That time could never take And though I know tomorrow Will ask me to move on You'll always be a heartbeat away Inside this heart you called home Outro Still close enough to feel A heartbeat away
