Lyrics
Beat A Drum
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The sun reflected in the back of my eye
I knocked my head against the sky.
The dragonflies are busy buzzing me
Seahorses if we were in the sea.
Halfway from coal, halfway to diamond.
My fall knocked a mean chip out of me.
I'm gathering as far as I can reach
we're perched upon the precipice
and this is what I've seen.
This is all I want it's all I need
This is all I am it's everything
This is all I want it's all I need.
A bluejay hectors from the felled Catalpa tree
A doctorate in science and a theologian's dream.
The dragonflies are trying to lecture me
Seahorses if we were in the sea.
This is all I want it's all I need
This is all I am it's everything
This is all I want it's all I need.
Beat a drum for me, like a butterfly wing
Tropical storm across the ocean.
Don't explain, I'm sure I'll want to know.
Don't forget, we're just halfway from coal.
This is all I want it's all I need
This is all I am it's everything
This is all I want it's all I need
