Lyrics
Up on the rooftop
Setting the scene on a rooftop
Trying to jump across
Attempting to cross the schoolyard blacktop
Schoolyard blacktop and looking down
Observing Westcote and Cypress runes below
Westcote and I, Cypress runes
Referring to companions on the rooftop
Steps on the gravel the only sound
Gravel steps, emphasizing silence
And when I look down
Reflecting on the view below
Heartbeats in rhythm
Heartbeats symbolizing individual rhythms
To it's own bah, bah, bah
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah
-Bah, bah, bah
-She said, "Between you and me
Dialogue about possibilities and self-expression
And the lamppost, we can be
-Anyone we wanna be
-Now the leap is through"
-When I thought that she was gone
Revelation that one cannot control the soul's destination
And she took me by the arm
-Said, "Even you can't take the soul
-Where you want it to"
-And I'm living proof
Asserting personal experience and existence
Heartbeats in rhythm
Reiteration of individual heartbeats and rhythms
To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Bah, bah, bah
-Heartbeats in rhythm
Continued emphasis on individuality and unique rhythms
To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Heartbeats in rhythm
-To it's own bah, bah, bah (bah, bah, bah)
-Bah, bah, bah
