Lyrics

A HEARTBEAT AWAY (by Steve Bell)
When you are lonely, confused or afraid
Think of me standing by you
I am no more than a heartbeat away
Think of me standing by you

The heart is like a home
Where you are not alone
First light of morning and last light of day
Think of me standing by you

When it’s a struggle for you to be calm
Think of me standing by you
When you are worried that something’s gone wrong
Think of me standing by you

Our love is like a home
Where you are not alone
Keep as a treasure the heart of this tune
And think of me standing by you…

…when you can’t name the fear you feel
You…can still know that love is real too.

Sometimes your thoughts leave you weak and upset
Think of me standing by you
Pause for a moment to take a deep breath
And think of me standing by you

Your heart is always home
To those you call your own
Take heart, and take courage and never forget
To think of me standing by you
Think of me standing by you

Sometimes your thoughts leave you weak and upset
Think of me standing by you
Pause for a moment to take a deep breath
And think of me standing by you

Your heart is always home
To those you call your own
Take heart, and take courage and never forget
To think of me stranding by you
Think of me standing by you
