[Gm] With my mind on you.
[C] .
All your friends [Gm] call you Lily [C] Paloma .
But [Bb] that's not the way that [C] you are.
It's [Gm] much a gentle [C] Miss Loma .
[Bb] For a shooting [Dm] star.

The .
[Bb] first [C] time I saw you.
[Gm] Alone in the dark [C] with a drink .
With a [Bb] candle flame burning [C] before you.
[Bb] And your thoughts closed in.
[C] You were staring [Gm] out into [C] the distance.
Not [Bb] seeming to hear what [C] I said .
[Gm] Why did you put up [C] such resistance.
Like [Bb] all the lights were [Dm] red.

There are times when you just look disdainful.
[Gm] Of the human race.
[C] .
Ah, [Fm] but then on the wings of [C] emotion.
We circle each other in flight.
