Lyrics Common Time - Beatenberg

Common Time

Try teachin' me love with a circle and a square
Drawn in the sand
Try see from above what you cannot see
From where you stand, mmh-mmh
Try playin' a four part fugue
On a small elastic band
I’m talkin' common time, common time, simple and true
I hear it all the time, in my mind, really I do
I’m talkin' common time, common time, products of two
Common to everyone, common to me and to you
Try blowin' a conch if you’re overwhelmed
With your desire
Try runnin' your scattered thoughts
In a single focused fire
Try showin' a manuscript to a large unruly choir
I’m talkin' common time, common time, simple and true
I hear it all the time, in my mind, really I do
I’m talkin' common time, common time, products of two
Common to everyone, common to me and to you
I’m talkin' common time, common time, simple and true
I hear it all the time, in my mind, really I do
I’m talkin' common time, common time, products of two
Common to everyone, common to me and to you
