Sometimes I wonder what made me leave it The water in the deep sea, the crystal chain Sometimes I look to the West And I wonder what made me leave it And the dream I had of something to grow old to Now I lost it Oh I love the rhythm, the pounding of my heart I'm a drum, I'm a drum now It is what makes me human Oh a beat to the bone, oh I am a drum It's the heart, it's the heart It is what makes me human Sometimes I look to the East And I wonder when will she reach me The very core of me, I will have to cross that river Oh I love the rhythm, the pounding of my heart I'm a drum, I'm a drum now It is what makes me human Oh a beat to the bone, oh I am a drum It's the heart, it's the heart It is what makes me human For every footstep, it's getting harder to turn back And did I ever know where I came from? And do I know where I'm heading at? For every footstep, it's getting harder to look back oh And did I ever know where I came from? And do I want what I'm heading for? Oh ask yourself, do you? Oh I love the rhythm, the pounding of my heart I'm a drum, I'm a drum now It is what makes me human Oh a beat to the bone, oh I am a drum It's the heart, it's the heart It is what makes me human Oh I won't let you go except you bless me Oh oh, I have to cross that river I won't let you go except you bless me Oh oh, I have to cross that river
