"My Heart No Longer Skips A Beat"

When you walk in a room
When I hear your voice
When I hear your name
I no longer feel the same

Constantly hearing your name
The sweating of my palms
The song on repeat
All cease to move me

…And my heart no longer skips a beat

I used to hold my breath when you walked in a room
Butterflies in my stomach when I saw you
Dreamt about your face
in my sleep

...And now my heart no longer skips a beat.

Choking back the tears
Thinking about what went wrong
I played it over and over again
A broken record like us

…But my heart no longer skips a beat

The sun has set
On this saga, this tale, this drama that failed.
I draw the line in the sand
I make no unnecessary demands.
You go your way and I go mine.
And this time I wont press rewind.

Fast forward to the next chapter
The story gets better after this
Now, I can put this behind...me.

...Since my heart no longer skips a beat.
