r.e.m. – beat a drum (unplugged, live 2001) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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

[verse 2]
halfway from coal
halfway to diamond
my fall knocked a mean chip out of me
i’m gatherin’ as far as i can reach
perched upon a precipice
and this is what i’ve seen
[chorus]
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

[verse 3]
a bluejay hectors from the felled catalpa tree
doctorate in science and a theologian’s drеam
dragonflies are tryin’ to lecturе me
a seahorse as if we were in the sea

[chorus]
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

[solo]

[verse 4]
beat a drum for me
like a b+tterfly wing
tropical storm across the ocean
but don’t explain, i’m sure i’ll want to know
don’t forget we’re just halfway from coal
[chorus]
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

[outro, spoken]
thanks
