Driving back from New Orleans
Flying across the miles
Bringing your image home to me
The laughter and the Smiles

Fate it seemed to force us here
So the memories could begin
It wrapped them in your loving touch
and the soft scent of your skin

Only One Beat Away from Your Heart

Distance seemed to keep us safe
That's the lie we told
Time would always hide the facts
and habit make them cold

Duty would always save the day
and faith could lead us higher
But there's a cloud across that sun
'cause we can't put out this fire

Only One Beat Away from your Heart

This isn't right, it must be wrong
Still I cannot see
I have no will to make an end
it's where I long to be

Only One Beat Away from your Heart
