Adrienne Young - In Between the Heartbeats lyrics

I been trying to live my life In between the heartbeats It's like cutting a path with a pocket knife In between the heartbeats I ain't made it out of the thicket yet But with an ounce of luck and a pound of sweat Soon as I get there I'm going to place my bets In between the heartbeats Rain comes down and the rivers rise In between the heartbeats Sun comes up and the river's run dry In between the heartbeats And all this worryin' about what to come Won't amount to nothin' when it's said and done Well the sun's gonna shine and the river's gonna run In between the heartbeats Oh and you gotta be quick When your heart's beating fast Oh got to get in the moment 'fore the moment is pa**ed Lord and you gotta be patient Baby when your heart takes it down Lord got to get in the rhythm of the world going round I been meaning to change my ways In between the heartbeats Soon as I find me some longer days In between the heartbeats Only 24 hours on that ol' clock You can't show up late when time is the boss Ain't no counting the livin' I lost In between the heartbeats Well the very last words from my grandma In between the heartbeats Girl you won't believe the things that I saw In between the heartbeats It's a flyin leap from birth to d**h Gotta to treat each moment like a special guest 'Bout the best you can do is do your best In between the heartbeats Yeah in between the heartbeats Yean in between the heartbeats
