Lyrics:
 When you speak, I freeze
Then I’m bumping into things and bruising my knees
I get shaky, a little dizzy
I know I’m falling but I hope you’ll catch me
My pulse is racing, can’t catch my breath
When I come back to baseline baby, there’s so much left unsaid

Pardon my heart, it gets in the way
I loses all my senses and I can’t concentrate
You’re sweeping me off my feet and my head just can’t compete
Pardon my heart . . . for skipping a beat

When you smile at me
I’m not really sure I know what that means
Do you think I’m crazy, or just silly
Well it’s a funny emergency
Be my first responder, let me know I’m okay
Don’t leave the scene now baby ’til I’ve had a chance to say

Pardon my heart, it gets in the way
I loses all my senses and I can’t concentrate
You’re sweeping me off my feet and my head just can’t compete
Pardon my heart . . . for skipping a beat

When you touch me, I might just shock you
When you touch me, I might just shock you
If you want me, you know you got to

Pardon my heart, it gets in the way
But I’ll give it to you, it’s here for you to take
I’ll sweep you off your feet, then you’ll know what it’s like to be me
You’ll say
Pardon my heart . . . for skipping a beat

Pardon my heart, it gets in the way
I loses all my senses and I can’t concentrate
You’re sweeping me off my feet and my head just can’t compete
Pardon my heart . . . for skipping a beat
