Lyrics
Talk about the hard times
That I‘ve been through
Shout about it
It was just a phase I was going through
But I still remember because some things still stay true
Don’t tell you’ve been there
Because I don’t recognise you
I was bathed in the fountains of faith
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy
When the hard days come
It’s never been easy
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum, like a drum
Well, I walk these streets, say one thousands times
I felt the body blows, saw those bitter lines
When it comes a time when the barricades are high
You know I’ll climb and God knows I try
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy, it's never been said
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum
Still I was bathed in the fountains of faith
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy
When the hard days come
It’s never been easy
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum, like a drum

That I‘ve been through
Shout about it
It was just a phase I was going through
But I still remember because some things still stay true
Don’t tell you’ve been there
Because I don’t recognise you
I was bathed in the fountains of faith
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy
When the hard days come
It’s never been easy
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum, like a drum
Well, I walk these streets, say one thousands times
I felt the body blows, saw those bitter lines
When it comes a time when the barricades are high
You know I’ll climb and God knows I try
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy, it's never been said
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum
Still I was bathed in the fountains of faith
But I’ve seen those lights
Still I was saved
It’s never been easy
When the hard days come
It’s never been easy
With a heart like a drum
Like a drum, like a drum

Way different from the original!
This is a fabulous song to cover/make your own. Your vox really shine here , they keep moving randomly around my head with the headphones on. I keep hearing Bono, Billy Idol, Jim...Lyrics are to be commended as well - Heart Like A Drum--says so many things, you choose.
You just took the prior recording as great as it was and just eased the speed back and ran with it. Great ambience and production.
Wonderful addition to XXX, slips in nice for a soft interlude between the rockers.
Thanks for posting this! Dl'd and archived :)
