'I still beat the drum', it means I'm still making music. 'Once before me now behind, if it's high or low', it's my career in music. All the ambitions I had were once before me, they are now behind. The song is about how I don't want to stop writing, I still have more to say. David Paton |
Before I let it goI know the hours I’ve wasted, I still beat the drum Of all the things I’ve tasted, I count the days to come Although the lines are complex, I follow the score And in the silence, I’m calling out for more Once before me now behind, if it’s high or low There’s more that I can say or do, before I let it go A million things I’d like to say, before I let it go A simple new creation, but complicated fun The feeling of elation, is second to none Although the lines are complex, I’ve heard them before And in the silence, I called out for more Once before me now behind, if it’s high or low There’s more that I can say or do, before I let it go A million things I’d like to say, before I let it go |
