--------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes you who must leave everything
That you cannot control
It begins with your family,
but soon it comes round to your soul
Well I've been where you're hanging
I think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy
Your loneliness says that your've sinned

They lay down beside me
I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes
And I touched the dew on their hem
If your life is a leaf
That the seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind yoou with love
That is graceful and green as a stem

When I left they were sleeping
I hope you run into them soon
Dont turn on the lights
You can read their address by the moon
And you wont make me jealous
If I hear that they sweetened your night

D MajorD  E MajorE

      A augmentedA       D MajorD
We werent lov-ers like that

    A augmentedA          E MajorE      A augmentedA
And besides it would still be all right


We werent lovers like that
And besides it would still be all right
