D E7
Hard to say... the moment where it all went wrong
D E7
In a way... I think we knew it all along
G
Sittin' here, watchin'
Bm A
taillights disappear on the horizon
Ain't it a pity ... we couldn't find a way to stick around
It ain't pretty ... but it all seemed so damn simple with our feet on stable ground
Sittin' here, while the
daylight disappears behind the mountain
It appears, that our
best days will remain yet unaccounted
Time was
As it shall ever be
Waking up to meet your shining eyes
As you're standing over me
In that moment I'm set free
(watching the days go by (yuck))
Who's to say ... just exactly why it was you stuck around
Day by day .... lost in a haze and captivated by the sound
Of the lighting, that was
Arcing from your fingers to the window
Made me feel so all alone, lost in the depths of my own shadow
We hit the city .... but we knew we couldn't linger for that long
That's the way .... an evening's peace in trade for for just one solitary song
But the wolves are always callin out to us from the horizon
<Instrumental lead in? >(?Striking some harmonic resonating deep within and urging us to join them?)
G Em Bm Am G Em Em Bm
Time moves slowly here, far from the troubles that once plagued us
I feel your presence near, lost in the low hum of the cicadas
In the heat, the wind rings with the sweetness of your laughter
Time was ....
