There's a light on the corner
It says I'd wish you'd come in
Unless you've got a place to go
So through the lines on the left
I can't hear what you say
All I hear are the tom tom drums

There's a drive by the lake
Where the fields get white
With the smell of the drum
Through the lights there's a calm
That I wish you could see
But we've got to go go go

We never played it right
And we'll never play it right

There's some lines in the songs
That I never get right
I can't rely on the good past leads
Like every man there's a calm
That I wish I could see
But we've got to go go go

We never played it right
And we'll never play it right
