Two Notes and a Beat Songtext
von The Lonely Forest

All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat

Oh, last night I dreamt a magnificent thing
I held you close, I heard you sing
Your voice was what I′d always wanted in a woman
I know you say he's good to you and I′m sure he is
But darling, he's all you'll ever know
Unless you trust your heart and let yourself grow old

If your skin was the ocean I′d sprint to your shore
I′d wade in your shallows, alleviate my core
If your hair was the fir tree, I'd
Hollow inside with peace I would slumber

Gripping this pen, cliff over water
Envisioning drums and rhythmic salute
Poetry craftwork is tough, I won′t bother
But pull simple rhymes, who perfume

All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat


To sing to you, my heart, it's a great place to start

All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you, my heart, it′s a great place to start

D to a G, swift as a bird
Muscles remembering artless, absurd
Modest attempts at creating a mood
This thin metal string my affections construe

Gripping this pen, cliff over water
Envisioning drums
Poetry craftwork is tough, I won't bother
But pull simple rhymes

All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat

To sing to you, my heart, it′s a great place to start
All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you, my heart, it's a great place to start

All I really need are two notes and a beat


To sing to you, my heart, it's a great place to start
All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you, my heart, it′s a great place to start
All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you, my heart, it′s a great place to start

All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you, my heart, it's a great place to start
All I really need are two notes and a beat
