Foolish beat
by Debbie Gibson
Verse 1:
There was a time when
Broken hearts and broken dreams
Were over.
There was a place where
All you could do was
Wish on a four leaf clover.
But now is a new time
There is a new place
Where dreams just can't come true.
It started the day when I left you
Chorus:
I could never love again the way that I loved you
I could never cry again like I did when I left you
And when we said goodbye,
Oh the look in your eyes
Just left me beside myself without your heart
(Without your heart)
I could never love again now that we're apart
Verse 2:
When I was sorry
It was too late to turn around (turn around)
And tell you so.
There was no reason
There was no reason
Just a foolish beat of my heart.
Chorus
Bridge:
Oh, can't you see I'm not fooling nobody
Don't you see the tears are falling down my face
Since you went away
Break my heart, you slipped away
Didn't know I was wrong
Never meant to hurt you now you're gone
I could never love again now that we're apart.
(Now that we're apart)
I could never love again now that we're apart.

Deborah Ann "Debbie" Gibson - born August 31, 1970 - is an American
singer-songwriter who was a teen pop icon. She was popular in the late
1980s and the early 1990s. At the age of 17, Gibson was the youngest
female to write, produce, and perform a Billboard Hot 100 # 1 hit single
with 'Foolish Beat', effectively taking the crown from her then teen
idol George Michael, who had, coincidentally, been asked to produce
'Foolish Beat', but passed on the opportunity.
She appeared repeatedly on the covers of teen magazines, such as
Tiger Beat. She has gone on to starring roles on Broadway and touring
musicals, as well as independent film and television work. She continues
to record, and reached the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart as high as
# 24 during 2006 in a duet with Jordan Knight titled 'Say Goodbye.' |
