Chords with lyrics
When he moves I watch him from behind
C majorC
he turns and laughter flickers in his eyes
G+G
intent and direct when he speaks, I watch his lips
G+G Bb majorBb
When he drives I love to watch his hands
C majorC
white and smooth almost feminine,
G+G
almost american, I have to watch him.
Chorus
G+G Bb majorBb C majorC
in his face age descends on youth, exaggeration on the truth
G+G
he caught me looking then but soon his eyes forgot
G+G Bb majorBb C majorC
and everything he seems to do reflects just another shade of blue
G+G
I saw him searching into you and ached a while
G+G Bb majorBb
I watch his lips caress the glass,
C majorC
his fingers stroke its stem and pass
G+G
to lift a cigarette at last, he dries his eyes
G+G Bb majorBb
from a shadow by the stair
C majorC
I watch as he weeps unaware
G+G
that I'm in awe of his despair, but I am there
(chorus repeat)
