Verse (Bbm G# F# G# Bbm)
There’s a shadow beneath the sea
There’s a shadow between you and me
I’ve learned that love is scared of light
Thousand seeds from a flower
Blowing through the night

Verse (Bbm G# F# G# Bbm)
Your blackened kiss on my cheek
Your blackened kiss runs river deep
A stranded fish dear, i’m on the sand
Blue water from a pool
Up to the clouds i’ll land

Verse (Bbm G# F# G# Bbm)
Though i am dark ‘bout the whys of wanting
Though i am dark, i’m still a child

Chorus
Gonna dig a coal mine,
Climb down deep inside
Where my shadow’s got one place to go
One place to hide…

Music in the air
Plucked from the centuries
Presented in the form
Of a song by you to me

Verse (Gm Eb F Eb Gm)Seagull in the airFloating on the updraftSee me on the groundThink i just heard her laugh
Chorus (Gm Eb F Eb)
Up in the air
Up there, up there, in the air

Verse (Gm Eb F Eb Gm)Twelve floors upIn the camlin hotelMan at the pianoPlays songs for the clienteleNotes mingle out from his mouthWith the alcoholFloating up to the starsAnd circling through them all
Chorus (Gm Eb F Eb)

Verse (Gm Eb F Eb Gm)Topographic linesCome close togetherImagine the peaksAnd the stormy weatherTrees fade to whiteAnd boulders just mightMake an appearanceIf the sun shines just right
Chorus (Gm Eb F Eb)

Do you blame monet? His gardens in givernyHe captured And lovely bashoHis plunking ponds and toadsEnraptured
The fate of kurt cobain Junk coursing through his veinsAnd young virginia woolf Death came and hung her coat
Love of color, sound and words Is it a blessing or a curse?Enraptured
Sing me your lover’s song
Come with me we’ll head up north
Where the rivers run icy and strong

The empty theater is lying cold
In the shadows of the past
A church group enters to touch the molding
With a burst of song and a simple repast
Guitars can’t help but sing
Can’t help but ring

A tiny little flute is whistling in the lips
Of a stranger on the corner
A tiny little girl ties flowers to her wrists
And the bees come round to adorn her

All the time spent dreaming is never lost
Dreams come back through the bells of trumpeting horns
Souls lost into the ether of death
Come back wise in the eyes and the arms of newborns
Hearts can’t help but sing
Can’t help but ring
