R.E.M. Reveal Beat A Drum
The sun reflected in
The back of my eye.
I knocked my head against the sky.
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.
A seahorse as if we were in the sea.
Half way from coal
Half way from diamond.
My fall knocked a mean chip out of me.
Gathering as far as I can reach.
Perched up on a precipice
And this is what I've seen.
Half way from diamond.
My fall knocked a mean chip out of me.
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.
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
Doctorate in science and a theologians dream
The dragonflies are trying to lecture me.
The seahorses as if we were in the sea.
The seahorses as if we were in the sea.
But 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.
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.
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.
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,
It's everything.
This is all I want,
It's all I need.
It's all I need.
This is all I am,
It's everything.
This is all I want,
It's all I need.
