THE DOORS OF YOUR YEART
The English Beat


Every story has to be about something, i suppose
this one says i lose my head
as the feeling starts to grow you know?
i can feel love thumping at the doors of my heart

feel love thump as it tears me apart
feel love pump as the worrying starts
i can feel love thumping
at the doors of my heart again
at the doors of my heart again
i can feel love thump
bom-bom be bom-bom.

everybody needs someone they can cling to
now and then,
no more defense, no more pretense
no reasons to explain it

you can feel love thumping at the doors of your heart
feel love thump as it tears you apart
feel blood pump as the worrying starts
you can feel love thumping
at the doors of your heart again
at the doors of your heart again
you can feel love thump
bom-bom be bom-bom.

and turn off the light eh

and I see man and man war and kill each other

feel love thump as it tears us apart
feel blood pump as the worrying starts
i can feel love thumping
at the doors of my heart again
at the doors of my heart again
i can feel love thump
bom-bom be bom-bom
bom-bom be bom-bom
i can feel love thump
bom-bom be bom-bom
at the doors of my heart again.
