Lyrics for Song: Can't You Hear My Heartbeat
Lyrics for Album: Marianne Faithfull [2008]
Every time I see you looking my way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
In the park or walking down the high way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
And when you move up closer to me
I get a feeling that's oo-wee.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'Cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.
When I feel you put your arms around me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Then I'm glad, I'm mighty glad you found me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
And when you asked me to meet your ma
I knew that baby we'd be goin' far.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'Cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.
All my friends are crying out to meet you,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Now's the time to go and see the preacher,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Now wedding bells are going to chime
And baby, baby, you're gonna be mine.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'Cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Ah!
Ah ...
Oh ...
Oh ...

Can't You Hear My Heartbeat
Released on Marianne Faithfull's 2008 compilation, this track stands as a poignant example of her enduring ability to blend folk sensibilities with intimate vocal delivery. The song reflects her signature style, characterized by raw emotion and a focus on personal narrative rather than polished production. While often associated with her broader catalogue of socially conscious and romantic works, the recording captures a specific moment in her career where she explored themes of vulnerability and connection. The piece serves as a testament to her status as a respected figure in British music history, known for her distinctive voice and willingness to tackle complex emotional landscapes. Listeners familiar with her earlier recordings will recognize the consistent depth and authenticity that define her artistic identity across decades. |
