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

A seahorse as if we were in the sea

Half way from coal

Half way to diamond

My fall knocked a mean chip out of me

I'm gathering as far as I can reach

Perched up on a precipice

And this is what I've seen

This is all I want

It's all I need

This is all I am

This is all I want

It's all I need

A bluejay hectors from the felled Catalpa tree

Doctorate in science and a theologians dream

Dragonflies are trying to lecture me

A seahorse as if we were in the sea

This is all I want

It's all I need

This is all I am

This is all I want

It's all I need

Beat a drum for me

Like a butterfly wing

Tropical storm across the ocean

But don't explain I'm sure I'll want to know

Don't forget we're just half way from coal

This is all I want

It's all I need

This is all I am

This is all I want

It's all I need
