[Verse 1]
Up on the rooftops trying to jump across
Schoolyard blacktop and looking down
Westcote and I and cypress runes
Steps on the gravel the only sound

Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Heart beats in rhythm to its own, bah-bah-bah (Bah-bah-bah)
Bah-bah-bah
