Sanders Bohlike - Death Is Like A Beating Drum lyrics

rate me

Death is like a beating drum

Heavy on my heart

I will leave you, lover, soon

Lovely though thou art

I can hear my fading breath

Like thunder on the sea

And I don’t mind the zealous hands

Only knows defeat

I loved you, endlessly

All the more I will

But death is like a beating drum

Who’s beating louder, still

Death is like a beating drum

Cadence true and thick

This darkness swallows beast and bird

Turn your eyes from it

I loved you, endlessly

And all the more I will

But death is like a beating drum

Who’s beating louder, still

Death is like a beating drum

Heavy on my heart

I will leave you, lover, soon

Lovely though thou art
