Acapella Lyrics - Flesh Tone - Kelis

I was walking, was living 

My melody was acapella 

There's a beat I was missing 

No tune, or a scale, I could play 

The sound in the distance 

No orchestra playing together 

Like a boat out to sea, 

The silence was too deafening 

So come and revive me 

I can't feel my heartbeat 

It's just me surviving alone 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Everything was the same 

One color was just like the others 

An assembly routine 

My memories were all black and white 

Till I stopped over thinking 

Decided to draw back the curtains 

And I cleared all the cobwebs 

And began to let in the light 

So come and revive me 

I can't feel my heartbeat 

It's just me surviving alone 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

You are the drum in my heart beat 

Bass and guitar lead 

Stuck on the notes you play 

My heart that you play on 

Red like a crayon 

I can't walk away 

You are the drum in my heart beat 

Bass and guitar lead 

Stuck on the notes you play 

My heart that you play on 

Red like a crayon 

I can't walk away 

You are the drum in my heart beat 

Bass and guitar lead 

Stuck on the notes you play 

My heart that you play on 

Red like a crayon 

I can't walk away 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing 

Before you, 

My whole life was acapella 

Now a symphony's 

The only song to sing
