[C]
I'm standing on soil you never felt The subtle hints of secrets [D] you'll [C] never tell
You lay [Am] in bed sick when [C] I'm around You can't be found
Would you say that you loved me if you were allowed
Or is a weak-kneed sense of bravery what you carry around
Spinning circles in the park outside your house
Fall into place like [Am] contrasting colors You [E] were gold, I was [C] green to discover
Swirling like oceans apart from each [Am] other You [E] and I may never [Am] be lovers
[C]

I'm still waiting on something you have good
