Ellie Goulding – Beating Heart lyrics

Ellie Goulding – Beating Heart lyrics

[Verse 1]
Eyes make their peace in difficulties
With wounded lips and salted cheeks
And finally we step to leave
To the departure lounge of disbelief

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
And I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

[Chorus]
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time
Before daylight

[Verse 2]
In the canyon underneath the trees
Behind the dark sky, you looked at me
I fell for you like autumn leaves
Never faded, evergreen

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
'Cause I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

[Chorus]
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time

[Bridge]
I can't face this now everything has changed
I just wanna be by your side, here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide

[Chorus]
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time

[Outro]
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight

I really love this song. I'm a Divergent fan, and it could relate to the movie and book because it is about Tris and Tobias. And because they live in a dangerous world and both their lives are at stake, they want to spend time as much as they can and they don't want to let go of each other. It explains it well in the song from the start till end.

I really appreciate this song. First, I can't believe no one has commented on this song yet. I thought there were a lot of Divergent fans. In my opinion this fits it very good, because it accentuates the 'constantly-almost-dead' theme Tris encounters in Dauntless with the chorus. Her love for Tobias comes in at the verses.
