Here's a little something for all you lovers - snuggle deep down inside your covers - make yourselves at home & I'll sing you a song about Love. It can start with just a chance encounter - he doesn't know a single thing about her - a casual thread, but Lo! it led to love. It takes too long to see what it takes two to love for it's soon to be. And you could easily forget to get upset & set it free. Sitting in a window at a table alone Watching dancers circle to a saxophone - they get up to go, now they know it's love. It couldn't be a nicer situation, Setting off on a long Vacation - the passage is booked & they're both hooked on love. From the tip of Alaska to the edge of Spain - in every long & latitude you'll find it's the same - put one & one & one to?get?her & you're not to blame if it's Love.
Get in line, keep in time with the Drum And don't forget you're nothing yet but water. Are you coming to or coming from The understanding that I'm handing it to you? Or is that a job you don't dare do? Hey, my pretty flower, there's a letter for you (you'll find it on the shelf) Though it was posted in Calcutta I know it's just another that you've written to yourself.
We watched a distant drummer flashing On the beat in all his parrot fashions.
Get in line keep in time with the Drum Don't move your feet until the next beat comes - One of the laws says pause between Though I would hate to make the game seem mean Hey my pretty flower can you guess where I've been? Can you guess at all? Well I've been to your rooms and learned You have all the mirrors turned against the wall.
I've watched a different drummer flashing On the beat in all his Parrot Fashions.
Listen now to the sound of the Drum - And don't forget we're nothing yet but water. It won't be pleasant when the present time is done Testing nightly 'neath a sprightly summer moon Your spirit like a jelly in a spoon. Hey ma jolie fleur there's a cat in the room And it's not the type you're used to Though I think I led it to the sink And tried to make it drink It refused to.
