Sing along to the lyrics for “UR HEARTBEAT (WHO DO U THINK ABOUT AT 2AM?)” by Jessie Reyez..
“UR HEARTBEAT (WHO DO U THINK ABOUT AT 2AM?)” reads like a woman dismantling her own armor. Reyez opens with a refusal: “I don’t wanna move on / Just wanna finally learn your weapons.” She has built armor for his weapons. For what? For new love? The question hangs. She wants to move on, but the memories keep cycling. Then the chorus lands a confession without a counterpoint: “I don’t miss all of the crying / I don’t miss all of the fighting / I don’t miss all of the lying / But I miss your heartbeat / Singing in the middle of the night.”

The second verse shifts to the awkward diplomacy of a post-breakup friendship. “We’re in that limbo where it might happen again / And we don’t touch, we just pretend / Like it’s platonic, but I want you in my bed.” The repetition of the chorus strips away the performance, leaving only the sound of a pulse she cannot stop replaying. For karaoke or a singalong, the chorus sticks after one listen. The official visualizer includes the lyrics on screen.

— LYRICS —
No, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna move on
Just when I finally learned your weapons
I got this armor for your weapons
For what? For new love?
I don’t wanna move on
You can’t leave me with all these memories
I been rinsing all of these memories
For what?
I know it’s better like this
I don’t miss all the crying
I don’t miss all the fighting
I don’t miss all the lying
But I miss your heartbeat
Singing in the middle of the night
We would reach out for each other with our eyes closed
Looking for a warm body to hold, hold close
I miss your heartbeat
Singing in the middle of the night
We would reach out for each other with our eyes closed
Looking for a warm body to hold close
Hold close
Hold close
It’s been a month, we’re tryna be friends
We’re in that limbo where it might happen again, uh
And we don’t touch, we just pretend
Like it’s platonic, but I want you in my bed
I know it’s better like this
I don’t miss all the crying
I don’t miss all the fighting
I don’t miss all the lying
But I miss your heartbeat
Singing in the middle of the night
We would reach out for each other with our eyes closed
Looking for a warm body to hold, hold close
I miss your heartbeat
Singing in the middle of the night
We would reach out for each other with our eyes closed
Looking for a warm body to hold close
Hold
Hold
