Tambourine

the world turns around
buildings shoot up
and when they come down
don’t worry
just listen for the tambourine and it’ll be alright
when you’re sitting
head in hands in the low level light
don’t worry
just listen for the tambourine and it’ll be alright
yes
play those bongos near to me
and fill me with love
turn your face to mine
your eyes are empty now but I don’t mind
I listen for the tambourine
echoing through the night
sing a new world
over the echo of the old world
follow the beat laid down by the tambourine
but what does it mean?
I blink and you’re beside me now
hand on my chest
leg over mine
a smile on your face
we’re morons together baby
I turn my head to the sea and the slow motion waves
your giggle awakens me and we’re back in the glade
open my eyes and you’re fucking me in my sleep
then the roof falls down to the sound of the tambourine
