My Heart Skips a Beat

Leather on the highway, midnight on the clock

You step beneath the streetlamp, and the whole world stops

Chrome beneath the moonlight, sparks across the street

One look from your eyes and my pulse misses a beat

I hear the engines calling, but I can't break away

Your silhouette is burning through the dark of yesterday

My heart skips a beat every time I see you

Like thunder breaking through a steel-blue sky

My heart skips a beat, and I can't conceal it

One look from you and I come alive

Red lights on the corner, your shadow on the wall

The jukebox keeps on roaring, but I don't hear it at all

Silver rings and black boots, a smile sharp as a blade

You turn and leave me breathless in the wake your eyes have made

The night is running faster, the city starts to spin

You strike a match beside me, and the fever rushes in

My heart skips a beat every time I see you

Like thunder breaking through a steel-blue sky

My heart skips a beat, and I can't conceal it

One look from you and I come alive

Maybe it's danger, maybe it's fate

Maybe your name is the sound of the gate

When the guitars rise and the sirens scream

You cut through the noise like a fever dream

No armor can stop it, no chain can defend

The shockwave begins when you turn again

My heart skips a beat every time I see you

Like thunder breaking through a steel-blue sky

My heart skips a beat, and I can't conceal it

One look from you and I come alive

Every time I see you, the whole world falls away

My heart skips a beat, and I want it that way
