One Beat from a Heartbreak Songtext
von Marc Martel

I′ve been beat down, set up, trampled
Dust in my mouth, I, I just wanna go home
Home, just wanna go home
I lost and found and then I lost it
Once shy, twice burned by ones I trusted
Oh, oh by ones I trusted
And none too close for comfort

One beat from a heartbreak
One step from a fall
One letdown from giving up
And not trying at all
Left my spirit tonight
Let's go back on time
And I can catch my breath from living
One beat, one beat from a heartbreak
From a heartbreak


I used to run on reckless abandon
Fresh face, so creed, hot like a cannon
Oh, oh hot like a cannon
And it′s a long way down from there to here

One beat from a heartbreak
One step from a fall
One letdown from giving up
And not trying at all
Left my spirit tonight
Let's go back in time
And I can catch my breath from living
One beat, one beat from a heartbreak
From a heartbreak
One beat, one beat from a heartbreak
From a heartbreak

Tears gonna run
Thieves gonna try and try to steal
O darling don't let go
Be still and know
What you can and cannot control


One beat from a heartbreak
One step from a fall
One letdown away from giving up
And not trying at all
I left my spirit tonight
Let′s go back in time
So I can catch my breath from living
One beat, one beat from a heartbreak
From a heartbreak
One beat, one beat from a heartbreak
From a heartbreak
One beat, one beat, one beat
