THE ROOT
All the songs have been sung before
Sometimes that's the way it seems
I place the notes on the score
And with some luck I'll make a little steam
I'm sifting through the rhythms in my mind
Drawn from an ancient beat
There's still so many words to find
Well, we'll hit two stones and create a little heat
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Shall I write about night today?
How about the falling rain?
I guess the key of C's okay
Don't want to strain the brain
A song about being glad
That could get boring quick
But if I sang about love gone bad
I might sound like a...
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
And drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
I've been here ten thousand times
I need a word to close out strong
Well I've got my book, my book of rhymes
And so we've reached the end of this song
Sometimes that's the way it seems
I place the notes on the score
And with some luck I'll make a little steam
I'm sifting through the rhythms in my mind
Drawn from an ancient beat
There's still so many words to find
Well, we'll hit two stones and create a little heat
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Shall I write about night today?
How about the falling rain?
I guess the key of C's okay
Don't want to strain the brain
A song about being glad
That could get boring quick
But if I sang about love gone bad
I might sound like a...
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
Drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
Symbolic of the old lands
Symbiotic with the root
And drums beat with many hands
Symbiotic with the root
I've been here ten thousand times
I need a word to close out strong
Well I've got my book, my book of rhymes
And so we've reached the end of this song
