Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Lemme tell you a little story
One so short and sweet
Oh I never had a good time with love
Luck was always down on me
I wasn't holdin' on for anybody
I nearly gave up my hope
But then I heard the beat of the drum
And it touches me, so lovingly

Buildup:
And it touches me, so lovingly (x2)

Chorus:
So lovingly!
So lovingly!
It touches me, so lovingly (x2)

Verse 2:
Lemme tell you a little story
One so short and sweet
Oh I never had a good time with love
Luck was always down on me
I wasn't holdin' on for anybody
I nearly gave up my hope
But then I heard the beat of the drum
And it touches me, so lovingly

Buildup 2:
And it touches me, so lovingly (x2)

Chorus 2:
So lovingly!
So lovingly!
It touches me, so lovingly (x2)
So lovingly!
