Beach Ball Songtext
von Dave Matthews Band

All the world is like a beach ball
Out in space, between the waves
In the hands of laughing babies
All the world is gumball-shaped

Hello moon
Hello stars and sky
Heaven won′t you
Answer me

And while I ring the bell 'til someone listens
Look upon this burning city
Victory smiles the wicked man
Does he feel the weight of every finger
Hanging off his heavy hands?
And I ring the bell ′til someone listens


Bring me gold and bring me wisdom
Give me scars to bring me grace
A wicked wit and when I use it
Dash the hopes of those who hate me
Give me love, big as a mountain

I ring the bell 'til someone listens
Melt the words right to my skin
And your smile, my flesh, and bones
From the mountains I will sing this
Through your veins my river flows
I ring the bell 'til someone listens

Bring me gold and bring me wisdom
Give me scars to bring me grace
A wicked wit and when I use it
Dash the hopes of those who hate me
Give me love, big as a mountain

I′ll ring the bells ′til someone listens

Bring me gold and bring me wisdom
Give me scars to bring me grace
A wicked wit and when I use it
Dash the hopes of those who hate me
Give me love, big as a beach ball
Give me love, big as a beach ball
