In the second verse, while hes saying "hearts" for the second time, the last three
are played forward, then backward, then forward, then backward, youll know what i mean if
listen to it. Other than that, this is pretty straightforward, heres the lyrics...
verse:She don't lie, in bed at night, starin' at the ceiling
She don't wait to begin
She bets on long shots, she wants what they've got
She swims with and iced, fin
Chorus:On and on we keep goin', crowded life, subway cars
On and on, to the beat of our noisy hearts, our hearts
verse:She was her mothers secret, she was daddy's girl
She brought weekend boys home in her curls
She said "my love is a fever, come on touch my skin,
They all think I'm easy, well I'm easy, cause i let them win
Chorus:On and on we keep goin', crowded life, subway cars
On and on, to the beat of our noisy hearts, to the beat of our noisy
hearts
^x2^
verse:She said, "Pick up the phone, cause I need to get more alone
and your voice drives me, crazy"
Chorus:On and on we keep goin', crowded life, subway cars
On and on, to the beat of our noisy hearts, to the beat of our noisy
hearts
^x3^
