Lisa Loeb Now I understand Lyrics

Oh when I turned five I got a piece of cake
the corner with the rose I leaned in close
and I told him that I loved him and he ran
It made my heart stop

Now I understand that my heart it doesn't stop
even though it feels like it could explode
Now I understand that my heart doesn't stop
it beats on and on and on

And in the afternoon I put on my best swimming suit
and spied across the pool at all my friends
but I sat on the steps in the shallow end alone
because my heart stopped It made my heart stop

I didn't get what I expected
Reached out and I got rejected
I couldn't have it cause I checked it off
Felt sad I didn't understand it
Why would this happen to me? But my heart
it didn't stop it beat on and on and on
