"Heart Stops Beating" lyrics

Here I stand in the cold
Watching everything getting old
Some look for diamonds, some dig for gold
The greatest story ever told

We haven't got much
We haven't got a lot
Someday your heart stops beating
Someday your heart stops beating
That's why I push my luck
That's why I try it on
'Cause when your heart stops beating
Then you're gone, gone, gone

Heaven sent me low
I said not yet, I'm not going
You think I'm joking, I'm serious as stone
When the world is smoking just let it go

We haven't got much
We haven't got a lot
Someday your heart stops beating
Someday your heart stops beating
That's why I push my luck
That's why I try it on
'Cause when your heart stops beating
Then you're gone, gone, gone

Trying to find the words is just a lie
Trying to find the words to hide behind
You won't be the first to waste your time
Or mine

We haven't got much
We haven't got a lot
Someday your heart stops beating
Someday your heart stops beating
That's why I push my luck
That's why I try it on
'Cause when your heart stops beating
Then you're gone, gone, gone

That's why I live my life like there's no tomorrow
Live my life like the days don't follow
(Gone, gone, gone)
(Gone, gone, gone)
That's why I live my life like there's no tomorrow
Live my life like the days don't follow
'Cause when your heart stops beating
Then you're gone, gone, gone
