c (<- just the one note)
I want to weave a musical spell
That leaves you unwell and thinking of me every day
I want to play you a tune that leaves you marooned and troubled
Each time I'm away
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep
I want to write a simple song
that's so frequently sung that you call me to have the thing banned
It's charm so endears that whole nations cheer and sigh
When you take my hand
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
So for one moment in time you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep
'Cause I'm a gambler that just wants to lose
and be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler - with one last mile - my journey is complete
I'm like a swallow that wants - one long last look - before flying east
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep
I want to play a silver note
that fills you with hope
And tames you to feed from my hand
A turquoise chord that invites you to soar
And fly... to a faraway land
A symphony that gently leads you - to sit and be still - with me
And grief doesn't frighten me
The sadness try to blind me
But I'm gonna kiss you and weep
'Cause I'm a gambler that just wants to lose
and be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler - with one last mile - my journey is complete
I'm like a swallow that wants - one long last look - before flying east
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep
