Haunting sorrows, burning heartaches and pain You seem to wash away... All that follows, memories n' yesterdays You give another take... You make it lighter, you bring on spring With you I feel like I can do anything With you I'll fly away Can you hear the distant echo? Can you hear the constant hum? Your song’s the color My heart is a beating drum No way I’ll ever let go For you I’m on the run Your flight's the solo My heart is a beating drum Sweet molasses, brewing dark oblivion Dress my soul in your serenity Empty shadows, traces after you're gone N' I'm all alone in the city You broke the seal, you made the sacrifice Seasons fall before they turn to rise With you I'll fly away Can you hear the distant echo? Can you hear the constant hum? Your song’s the color My heart is a beating drum No way I’ll ever let go For you I’m on the run Your flight's the solo My heart is a beating drum I'm the one pulling your strings, but you’re no marionette Sticking needles in the pins, I follow no etiquette You are the soul in the soul of a moment, you are my only safe bet You are the hope when it says the end You are the tears that I'll shed hear the distant echo? hear the constant hum? Your song’s the color My heart is a beating drum No way I’ll ever let go That still be I become(? Your flight's the solo My heart is a beating drum
