Giant Heartbeat Lyrics by Split Enz

Time and Tide

0

Heartbeat bearing down
Our world never sleeps

Feel like a Zephyr harmonising with a flute
Notes are rising in familiar twos and threes
Time of yearning is the same at any age
Back is bending and the sky is growing pale

Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike
Hearts and souls move together in time

One step forward is a leap for all mankind
Old Man River smiles on all he leaves behind
Ooh when temptation brings you down
I say you better spread yourself around
Red limbs my body's torn apart
Boy's hand will squeeze the giant's heart

Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike
Hearts and souls move together in time
If anybody's listening the giant heartbeat is fading

Fire burns
Water drowns
Hate kills
Our homes
Faith helps
Love heals

Sun up sun down fade to a lookalike
Hearts and souls move together in time
If anybody's listening
If anybody's listening
Is anybody listening
The giant heartbeat is fading
