Bamboo

Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling, And the rain come down, seem to say In a voice so appealing, Go away, oh don't delay. Though there's bamboo all around me, I vow, I'll find a way. But bamboo has tied and bound me, And I know I'm here to stay. Why do the tom-toms all beat So loudly, Why do the shadows all seem to Crowd me? Can't stop this pounding, pounding, Pounding, in my head Through the night I toss, on my Bamboo bed. Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling, Hold me, though love is gone. In my heart, there is no feeling But somehow, I carry on. Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling Bamboo beam, within my heart.
