Rem - Beat A Drum lyrics

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.
