[Ab]
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] I'm looking, [Fm] I'm looking back, [Eb] I'm trying to [Bb] imagine,
the sun black, [F] the simple mathematics making up [C] the mind,
[Gb] insurance to protection [Ab] from immediate [Eb] collapse.
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] I'm watching, [Fm] I'm watching you, [Eb] a voyeur from a [Bb] different point of view,
[F] the solitary eyes that I've been [C] looking through,
[Gb] committed to [Ab] connecting the old ways to [Bb] the new,
and I see things, [Ab] through a curtain blowing back against the rain,
[Cm] through the crack in a door that gives way to pain,
[D] and through every gap [G] that gives away [Ab] some secret in the dark,
I [Gb] come away with [Db] something [Eb] to keep you [F] in my heart.
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] I'm searching, [Fm] I'm setting [Eb] out, to prove it like [Bb] the shadow of a [F] doubt,
the age old contradiction that's hovering [C] about,
[Gb] a whisper in the [Ab] darkest holes, more truth [Eb] than a shout.
[Bb]
I'm waiting, [Fm] I'm waiting [Eb] for, telltale [Bb] footsteps on the bedroom [F] floor,
a broken hearted lover simply [C] looking for,
[Gb] relief that's [Ab] temporary from a dirty [Bb] little wall,
and I see pain, [Ab] from the ceilings of a hundred hotel [Cm] rooms,
from a satellite that's bouncing off the moon,
[D] and from every telescope [G] that's [Ab] focused and I'm someplace dark,
I [Gb] come away with [Db] something [Eb] to keep you [F] in my heart.
[Bb] I see [Ab] things, from the highest branch that looks directly in,
[Cm] through a half cycle lighting silent on the wind,
[D] and in every [G] secret rendezvous [Ab] where illicit lovers part,
I come [Gb] away with [Db] something [Eb] to keep you in [F] my heart.
