Go Tell The Drummer Man lyrics
Song information
Artist: Joni Mitchell Album: Unreleased On Record
Lyrics
Silver drums, rhythms that he hums Waltzing dogs, that come when he calls Plans for one he keeps in a coffer What can I offer, I don't know Can I bring him love words to sing him Like some foolish magi I'll be gone and words in a song Won't even last till sunrise
Go tell the drummer man The time glass is out of sand Ask him to understand And wait for me, and wait for me
Streets and parks Waltzes in the dark Lovers now, when time will allow An afternoon, the kind to believe in Why am I leaving? I don't know Distant places, just empty spaces Till we are together What can I bring, time leaves me nothing I wonder will it ever
Go tell the drummer man The time glass is out of sand Ask him to understand And wait for me, and wait for me
Silver birds fly away like words In the wind, and soon I'll be in Another world The land of without him What's it about, this other world
Go tell the drummer man The time glass is out of sand Ask him to understand And wait for me, and wait for me
