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]Come with me we'll head up n[Cm]orth
[Cm]Where the rivers run icy and strong
[Gm]The empty theater is lying c[Cm]old
[Gm]In the shadows of the p[Cm]ast
[Gm]A church group enters to touch the mo[Cm]lding
[Cm]With a burst of song and a simple repast
[Cm]Guitars can't help but s[Gm]ing
[Cm]Can't help but r[Gm]ing
[Gm]A tiny little flute is whistling in the lips
Of a str[Cm]anger on the c[Gm]orner
[Gm]A tiny little girl ties flowers to her wrists
And the bees [Cm]come round to adorn h[Gm]er
[Gm]All the time spent [Cm]dreaming is never [Gm]lost
[Gm]Dreams come back through the b[Cm]ells of trumpeting h[Gm]orns
[Gm]Souls lost into the ether of death
[Gm]Come back wise in the eyes and th[Cm]e arms of new[Gm]borns
[Cm]Hearts can't help but si[Gm]ng
[Cm]Can't help but r[Gm]ing
