After myocardial stress test, part one,
This is what they've found so far.
I've been told that I,
Have a hummingbird heart.
Just because my heart,
Beats far to fast. It moves
Quicker than the rest of me.
I've been told it flutters,
The faster it gets,
The slower I get.
I've always considered,
Myself a disaster.
To scared to sit still.
Being bullied in life,
I learnt to run faster.
My heart never slows.
The faster it goes,
As I walk down the road.
My body gives out..
I have to slow down,
Before I fall down,
I pick up my phone.
Before I realise it,
My grandson is here,
To help me back home.

HUMMINGBIRD HEART
Guess you gotta laugh,I've been told that I,
Have a hummingbird heart.
Just because my heart,
Beats far to fast. It moves
Quicker than the rest of me.
I've been told it flutters,
The faster it gets,
The slower I get.
I've always considered,
Myself a disaster.
To scared to sit still.
Being bullied in life,
I learnt to run faster.
My heart never slows.
The faster it goes,
As I walk down the road.
My body gives out..
I have to slow down,
Before I fall down,
I pick up my phone.
Before I realise it,
My grandson is here,
To help me back home.
