LA SI RE
Talked out and now I'm feeling crowded.
LA SI SOL
All the errands in the world won't save us now.
LA SI RE
Rained in and I won't come unclouded.
LA SOL# SOL FA#
There's a stillness in the air.
SI SOL
I pray for sound.
FA# SOL
We're too smart to watch TV.
RE LA
We're too dumb to make believe
MI FA# RE
this is all we want from life.
FA# SOL
And I'm too dumb to talk to you.
RE LA
You're so quick to listen to me.
MI FA# RE
I'm saying nothing you don't know.
Nothing you don't know.
same as first verse:
Walked out and I won't be rerouted.
If I don't go outside today, I never will.
Too old not to get excited
about rain and roads,
Egyptian ruins, our first kiss.
LA MI FA#
I love you more than I ever loved
RE
Anyone before, or anyone to come.
LA MI
Someone said your name, I thought of you alone.
FA# RE
I was just the same, twenty blocks away.
same as first verse:
Blew twelve and kissed the thirteenth finger.
"Rabbit, rabbit," on the first.
I hold my breath.
Did tricks I hoped you wouldn't notice.
A superstitious hyperrealist.
I'll make you mine.
