Lyrics

Turn around, baby, here I am, look into the eyes of this loving man
See them shine from a heart of gold, don't look away or you'll destroy my soul
Why would you ever want to tear me apart?
You're just a beat away from my heart... (reach out) x2

You can walk or baby, you can run, I don't care just as long as you come
To be with me and stand by my side, show me your lover's world and be my guide
You're so close, but baby, you're so far
You're just a beat away from my heart... (reach out) x2

Don't tease me, just please me, I'll be your teddy bear if you just want to squeeze me
Cruel or kind, baby, I don't mind, just as long as you're mine all mine

(Instr.)

You're so close, but baby, you're so far
You're just a beat away from my heart... (reach out) x2

So reach out and baby, I'll reach in to touch your heart with all I've been
A passion strong, a love that's true and all that I do, I do for you
I'm reaching out so we can make a start
I'm just a beat away from your heart
Why would you ever want to tear me apart?
You're just a beat away from my heart... (reach out) x3
