I'd like to kiss you
Would you mind if I do?
I'd like to taste the breath of yours in mine
I'd like to take your hand and hold it tight
To feel the skin of two flawed lovers combine
I'd like to close my eyes
Where the sand meets the sea
Let our hearts sail on and be free
If you listen real close you can hear the tune
Of loneliness playing for you
The sirens are singing for relief, from the
Ache of the drum
It beats on and on
And it's getting stronger
Play me something loud
Anything to drown it out
Can you hear it
Pounding on and on and on
On and on and on, oh
The ache of the drum is beating on
I can't keep from drowning
In your smile so sweet
It's dripping with honey
Every word that you speak
Come on let's lay down 'neath the summer sky
I promise I won't give in
Even though I'm trying to pacify, this
Ache of the drum
It beats on and on
And it's getting stronger
Play me something loud
Anything to drown it out
Can you hear it
Pounding on and on and on
On and on and on, oh
The ache of the drum is beating on
One, two, three, I can't take it anymore
Come on, play some more
One, two, three, I can't take it anymore
Come on, play some more
The ache of the drum
It beats on and on
And it's getting stronger
Play me something loud
Anything to drown it out
Come on, play some more
One, two, three, I can't take it anymore
Come on, play some more
One, two, three, I can't take it anymore
Come on, play some more
