Next life, could you kindly refain

    A minorAm            G+G
From throwing yourself at the mercy of a train?

But heaven still hounds from the smallest sounds

To the cries of the storm-tossed

Week nine: I am writing in the sand

 A minorAm             G+G
Any little clue that could help me understand

How can we return

For good
