My Heart Stops

(diane warren)



(recorded by eric carmen)

Arista as1-2264 / 1992



I tell myself

This can't be love

That i'm feelin'

But if i think that my world

Will be the way that it was

I'm dreamin'



Why do i feel so high

At the mention of your name

Why do i act so shy

Can't explain, can't explain, can't explain

But darlin'



Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin' by

My heart stops

My heart stops

I can't explain it

Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye

My heart stops

My heart stops

Every time you're near



Just thinkin' about you

Darlin' it just does

Something to me

And when we meet on the street

I feel the flame of love

Burnin' through me



I try to play it cool

And never show a sign

But i give myself away

Every time, every time, every time

'cause darlin'



Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin' by

My heart stops

My heart stops

I can't explain it

Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye

My heart stops

My heart stops

Every time you're near



My heart stops, my heart stops

My heart stops, my heart stops



Oh, whenever you're close to me

There's a wave of love rushin' over me

And i never felt this way

Can't explain, can't explain, can't explain

But darlin'

My darlin'



Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin' by

My heart stops

My heart stops

I can't explain it

Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye

My heart stops

My heart stops

Every time you're near
