Strum
D-DU-UDU
All  of a sudden now you're back again
 I thought you were happy  with whoever or did you dream about me now and then
 Did you look  up at the stars and feel something  for the constellations
All  those lovers circling round their loves
 Slings and arrows,  dogs and lions, rivers separating touch from touch
 The comedy  of distance, the tragedy  of separation
 
 Am I making all the right moves?
 Am I singing you the right  blues?
 Is there a time that I could  call you
 Just to see  how you are doing?
 I said how is it that you come back to me?
 You don't need the stories of my scars or in the stars to tell you nothing's free
 I traded all the innocence I ever had for hesitation
 I said won't you tell me where you been?
 You put a finger to my lips and then you kissed me once and once again
 The crickets all leapt up and met the moon with a standing ovation
 Am I making all the right moves?
 Am I singing you the right blues?
 Is there a time that I could call you
 Just to see how you are doing?
 -  -  -  -  x 2
 I heard the night birds picking up the song
 You threw your hair back and sang along
 
 And I realized that  I might lose you you might lose me drift apart in the night and
 know why and not know how
 I said what if we are like the Northern sky?
 What if there are things that come between us that we can't take back and we can't make right?
 You said I don't know darlin' but I'm here with you and we're coming to the chorus now!
 Am I making all the right moves?
 Am I singing you the right blues?
 Is there a time that I could call you
 Just to see how you are doing?
 Repeat chorus
