lyrics

Baby, you know love keeps a rhythm like a failing heart
It goes stop, start, stop, start
The way we keep getting closer 'til we fall all apart
And I'm waiting, I'm waiting for the phone

Now baby, I've been following the bouncing ball
Seen it rise and fall and rise and fall
The way you ache for me 'til you don't want me at all
And I'm waiting, I'm waiting for the phone

Hear that scratch at the glass, hear that howl and moan
It's your loyal boy, baby, been begging for a bone
He's been banging that hammer on a pile of stones
And it's a lousy life, lady, trying to love you all alone

Baby, you know love keeps a rhythm like a failing heart
It goes stop, start, stop, start, stop and start
And I"m starving to the skin, like your sick work of art
And I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting...

Here comes the ring of the bell, here comes the jerk of the leash
You lay the feast upon the table while I'm whining underneath
How long you think that you can keep it just out of reach
Before the boy starts barking and baring his teeth?

You know love keeps a rhythm like a failing heart
It goes stop, start, stop
