[Verse 1: Neil Tennant & Ian McKellen]
Every time I see you
Something happens to me
Like a chain reaction
Between you and me

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
If I didn't love you
I would look around for someone else
But every time I see you
You have the same effect

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Every time

[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you

[Bridge: Neil Tennant]
Beat
Beat
Beat
H-heartbeat

[Interlude]

[Bridge: Neil Tennant]

[Verse 3: Neil Tennant & Ian McKellen]
Every time I see you
No matter what we do
There's a strange reaction
Can you feel it too?

[Chorus: Neil Tennant & Ian McKellen]
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time

[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant & Ian McKellen]
I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
