          G           Dsus2   Cadd9
When the sun rested on olive shoulders
        G               Dsus2       Cadd9
and the wind kissed the back of your neck,
        G        Dsus2         Cadd9
I would lay and absorb in the silence,
        G          Dsus2       Cadd9
in your language I haven’t learned yet.

        Dsus2      Em7      Cadd9
In the tune of the national anthem
         Dsus2       Em7          Cadd9
sing the words while the corrugate bursts
          Dsus2     Em7     Cadd9
while our burning desires crackling.
      Dsus2     Em7     Cadd9
We exist in the unified verse.

          G           Dsus2      Cadd9
When your eyes became focused on absence,
        G            Dsus2       Cadd9
how the shadows were cast on the plane
       G           Dsus2     Cadd9
under moonlight of middle November.
      G           Dsus2       Cadd9
I was shifting to stay in the frame.

        Dsus2        Em7          Cadd9
I would eat from the tops of your branches
        Dsus2        Em7        Cadd9
spit it out, break a bough and descend.
        Dsus2        Em7         Cadd9
I would dream of the ways we get cradled
           Dsus2 Em7 Cadd9
while this lullaby rings in my head.

Cadd9
When this began this was a thing that we could both share.
A bit of shame the goodness fades and we begin there
When this began this was a thing that we could both share
A bit of shame the goodness fades and we begin there
