Go Tell The Drummer (Live) Lyrics

Go Tell The Drummer (Live) - Joni Mitchell (琼尼·米契儿)

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

And wait for me

 

 

And wait for me
