Heartbeat
Why do you miss when my baby kisses me?
Heartbeat
Why does a love kiss stay in my memory?

Riddle dee pat
I know that new love thrills me
I know that true love will be

Oh, heartbeat
Why do you miss when my baby kisses me?
Heartbeat
Why do you skip when my baby’s lips meet mine?
Oh, heartbeat
Why do you flip, then give me a skip each time

Hey, Riddle dee pat
And sing to me love’s story
And bring to me love’s glory

Oh, heartbeat
Why do you miss when my baby kisses me?
Heartbeat, heartbeat, heartbeat, heartbeat
Yeah, stop this heartbeat

(Bob Montgomery-Norman Petty)
