Blood on the Drum - Before the Music Died Lyrics




Barely knew 'em's wedding night
Every intent for food and flight
Until the hostess dimmed the lights
And there in the dark, I saw you

Strolling your mother's wheelchair
Blonde highlights in your dark hair
What could I do but stop and stare
As you walked up to me

And you said, "Is this seat taken?"
It was, but I told you no
You sat down and we chatted
While the band was playing rock and roll

If I could play it over one more time
I would have taken it as a sign
Before you left that night, I'd try to make you mine
If I could play it over one more time
I would have talked with you all night
Before the music died, I'd try to make you mine
But I can't, so I'll just think of you tonight

They're playing classic rock, but not one single slow song
So I walked up to the band and asked what's wrong
I said, "I wanna ask a girl to dance, don't mess this up"
And before too long, I hear it coming on

I reached out and took her hand
And said, "Would you like to dance, Jenny?"
Then noticing the ballad
You blushed and followed me

If I could play it over one more time
I would have taken it as a sign
Before you left that night, I'd try to make you mine
And if I could play it over one more time
I would have danced with you all night
Before the music died, I'd try to make you mine
But I can't, so I'll just think of you tonight

Your sister got a little too drunk
You walked her out, as a sister should
And as the music died I realized
That you were gone for good

If I could play it over one more
I would have taken it as a sign
Before you left that night, I'd try to make you mine
And if I could play it over one more time
I would've never let you out of my sight
Before the music died, I'd try to make you mine
But I can't, so I'll just think of you tonight
No I can't, so I'll just think of you tonight
