The Lonely Forest - Two Notes & A Beat Lyrics
All I really need are two notes and a beatOh, last night I dreamt a magnificent thingI held you close I heard you singYour voice was what I'd always wanted in a womanI know you say he's good to you and I'm sure he isBut darling, he's all you'll ever knowUnless you trust your heart and let yourself growIf your skin was the ocean I'd sprint to your shoreI'd wade in your shallows, alleviate my coreIf you hair was the fir tree all hollow insideWith peace I would slumberGripping this pen, cliff over waterEnvisioning drums in rhythmic salutePoetry craft work is tough I won't botherBut pull simple rhymes from the dirt, who'd refute?All I really need are two notes and a beatAll I really need are two notes and a beatTo sing to you my heartIt's a great place to startD to a G, swift as a birdMuscles remembering artless, absurdAnd modest attempts at creating a moodWith these thin metal strings my affection construeGripping this pen, cliff over waterEnvisioning drumsPoetry craft work is tough I won't botherBut pull simple rhymesAll I really need are two notes and a beatAll I really need are two notes and a beatTo sing to you my heartIt's a great place to start
