so well
Do you blame monet? His gardens in giverny
He captured And lovely basho
His plunking ponds and toads
Enraptured
The fate of kurt cobain Junk coursing through his veins
And young virginia woolf Death came and hung her coat
Love of color, sound and words Is it a blessing or a curse?
Enraptured
Sing me your lover's song
Gm Cm
Come with me we'll head up north
Cm
Where the rivers run icy and strong
Gm Cm
The empty theater is lying cold
Gm Cm
In the shadows of the past
Gm Cm
A church group enters to touch the molding
Cm
With a burst of song and a simple repast
Cm Gm
Guitars can't help but sing
Cm Gm
Can't help but ring
Gm
A tiny little flute is whistling in the lips
Cm Gm
Of a stranger on the corner
Gm
A tiny little girl ties flowers to her wrists
Cm Gm
And the bees come round to adorn her
Gm Cm Gm
All the time spent dreaming is never lost
Gm Cm Gm
Dreams come back through the bells of trumpeting horns
Gm
Souls lost into the ether of death
Gm Cm Gm
Come back wise in the eyes and the arms of newborns
Cm Gm
Hearts can't help but sing
Cm Gm
Can't help but ring
