Lyrics:
[Cody Simpson]

[Verse 1]

I've been trying to find the right words
But they always seem to hit the page wro-oh-oh-wrong
You see I tend to fight words
You breathe 'em into life and they're gone
I need some louder speaking actions
They do what letters could never do-oo-oo-oo
You see you are my addiction
I need more than words to show you

[Hook]

So listen, (so listen)
to-to-to-to me (to me)
So listen, (so listen)
Li-li-li-listen to my heartbeat (listen to my heartbeat)

[Verse 2]

I'd like to think you understand me
But I never really like to assume
So you never have to ask me
I'mma let my actions tell you the tru-hu-u-uth

For you-ou-ou-ou
There is nothing I wouldn't go through-ough-ough-ough-ough
And if you need some proo-oo-oo-oof
You can find it in what I do-oo-oo-oo

(Listen to me baby)
And I could tell you everyday
Just how much I want you2
I-I-I-I I've never been good with words
But I went and wrote this song for you

[Hook x2]

So listen, (so listen)
to-to-to-to me (to me)
So listen, (so listen)
Li-li-li-listen to my heartbeat (listen to my heartbeat)

[T-Pain]

[Rapping Bridge]

Baby, I need you to listen (listen)
Open up your ears (open up your ears)
Pay attention (tention)
Let go of your fears
I'm not tryin' to be that dude
that got these people in your business
I'm just tryin' to love you
Can I get a witness?
(Ohhh) Le-le-le-le-Let the church say 'amen' (amen)
'Cause I know that you need a man (a man)
And I'm gon' do whatever I can
So stop with all the dissin
Get to the kissin
Baby you know what you missin' (So listen)

[Hook x2]

So listen, (so listen)
to-to-to-to me (to me)
So listen, (so listen)
Li-li-li-listen to my heartbeat (listen to my heartbeat)

[Outro]

(stutters)
Li-li-li-listen to my heartbeat (listen to my heartbeat)
