[E] [A]
[F#m] [D] [E]
[A] You [F#m] come from far away [D] with pictures [A] in your eyes
Of coffee [F#m] shops and morning streets [D] and a blue and [E] silent sunrise
But night is [F#m] the cathedral [D] where we recognize [A] the sign
We strangers [F#m] know each other [D] now as [E] part of the whole design
[Bm] Oh, hold [E] me like a baby [F#m] that will not [E] fall asleep
[F#m] Curl me up [E] inside you [Bm] and let me hear you [E] through the heat
[A] Oh, [F#m]
[A] you're the jester [F#m] of this courtyard [D] with a smile [A] like a girl's
Distracted [F#m] by the women [D] with the dimples [E] and the curls
By the pretty and [F#m] the mischievous, [D] by the timid and [A] the blessed
By the blowing skirts [F#] of ladies who promise [D] to gather you to their [A] breast
[Bm] Oh, hold me [E] like a baby [F#] that will not fall asleep
[F#m] Curl me up [E] inside you and let [F#m] me hear you through [E] the heat
Oh, [F#m] you [A] [F#m]
[A] [E] [A]
[E] have hands of rain and [F#] water and [A] that earring in your ear
The wisdom on [F#m] your face denies [B] the number of [E] your years
With [E] the fingers of [F#] the potter [B] and the laughing [A] tale of the fool
The arranger of disorder with [E] your strange and simple [A] rules
Yeah, now admit me [F#] another spinner [E] of strange and [A] gauzy threads
With a long and [F#m] slender body [D] and a bump [E] upon the head
[Bm] Oh, hold me [E] like a baby [F#m] that will not [E] fall asleep
[F#m] Curl me up [E] inside you and [F#] let me hear you through [E] the heat
Oh, with [A]
a long and [F#m] slender body [D] and the [A] sweetest, softest hands
And we'll blow [F#m] away forever soon [D] and go on to [E] different lands
And please do not [F#m] ever look for me, [D] but with me you [A] will stay
And you will [F#m] hear your self in [D] song blowing by [A] one day
But [Bm] now hold me [E] like a baby [F#m] that will not [E] fall asleep
Curl me up inside you [F#m] and let me hear you [E] through the heat
