Cherish › Lyrics › Like a Drum

Lights dimmed, candles lit
Your car pulls up and then you walk in
I can see the look on your face
I know you 'bout to ruin my day

Then you get to spittin' lines
Something like this comes a time
Blood rush to my head, I start shaking
Right now my heart is aching

(Thump, thump, thump)
That's when you said and my heart thumped
To a thousand beats a second
(Thump, thump, thump)

Gotta catch my breath
'Cause there's nothing left
(Thump, thump, thump)

All these years that I've been down
How you gonna leave me now?
All that's left is regret
Wish I never met you
Can't believe I was a fool

You got my heart beating like a drum
Tell me where did this come from?
Thinking that I'm a have your baby
Now you're telling me something crazy

What am I supposed to do?
How do I live without you?
Can't believe you're saying that we're done
You got my heart beating like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Oh, oh, oh

Now I'm sitting here so confused
Thinking 'bout what the hell I'm gon' do
How can I live without your love?
My body's yearning for you touch

Thought you said I would be your wife
Ride or die, me and you for life
Forever you and I
I was thinking, now our ship is sinking

(Thump, thump, thump)
That when you said and my heart jumped
To a thousand beats a second
(Thump, thump, thump)

Let me catch my breath
Because you up and left
(Thump, thump, thump)

All these years that I've been down
You're gonna leave me now?
All that's left is regret
Wish I never met you
Can't believe I was a fool

You got my heart beating like a drum
Tell me where did this come from?
Thinking that I'ma have your baby
Now you're telling me something crazy

What am I supposed to do?
How do I live without you?
Can't believe you're saying that we're done
You got my heart beating like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Oh, oh, oh

I still can't see how, how I couldn't see the signs
And how I wasn't warned
And why the only man I ever loved
Would break my heart?

Tell me where do I go from here
And how do I move on?
You're the only thing I've known
Baby, your house is my home

How could I lose you? I won't go, I refuse to
'Cause I can't stop thinking 'bout you
Dreaming 'bout you
See, how could I ever live without you?

Seems like the right words are hard to find
To help you change your mind
For you, baby, I'll fight
'Cause I need you in my life

You got my heart beating like a drum
Tell me where did this come from?
Thinking that I'm a have your baby
Now you're telling me something crazy

What am I supposed to do?
How do I live without you?
Can't believe you're saying that we're done
You got my heart beating like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum

(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Like a drum
(Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump)
Oh, oh, oh
