Don't Bang The Drum Lyrics

Waterboys
This Is The Sea
Don't Bang The Drum
(Mike Scott & Karl Wallinger)


Here we are in a special place
what are you gonna do here?
now we stand in a special place
what will you do here?
what show of soul
are we gonna get from you?
it could be Deliverance
or History
under these skies so blue
but if I know you you'll
bang the drum like monkeys do


Here we are in a fabulous place
what are you gonna dream here?
we are standin' in this fabulous place
what are you gonna play here?
I know you love the high life
you love to leap around
[ Waterboys Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
you love to beat your chest
and make your sound
but not here man!
- this is sacred ground
with a power flowing through
and if I know you you'll
bang the drum like monkeys do


Now we stand on a rocky shore
your father stood here before you
I can see his ghost explore you
I can feel the sea implore you
not to pass on by
not to walk on by and not to try
- just to let it come
don't bang the drum
just let it come
don't bang the drum
do you know how to let it come now?
don't bang the drum now
just let it come now
don't bang the drum now
don't bang the drum
