[Verse 1]
Up on the rooftops trying to jump across
Schoolyard blacktop and looking down
Westcote and I and cypress runes
Steps on the gravel the only sound
And when I look down

[Chorus]
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah

[Verse 2]
She said, "Between you and me and the lamppost, we can be
Anyone we wanna be, now the leap is through"
When I thought that she was gone, she took me by the arm
Said, "Even you can't take the soul where you want it to"
And I'm living proof

[Chorus]
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah

[Chorus]
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah
