[Verse 1]
C    G      F         C
[tab]C      G         F        C
But I don't even hear it ring

C            G          F           C
The July in winter, and September spring

C             G            F        C
Where way up north is the warmer weather
[Verse 2]
C   G           F        C
So together we take the call

C      G         F                C
And we hold the line through the static sprawl

C           G         F             C
Though the distances traveled are expanding still

C             G           F     C
We meet in dreams by the lilac river
[Verse 3]
C    G        F      C
Oh, giver of empathy

C               G               F           C
It is a gift so bitter that you brought to me

C                       G             F               C
'Cause I feel what he's feeling and I know that he's free

C                  G             F             C
And the freedom he takes is the earthly burden
[Verse 4]
C       G          F        C
Please deliver his angel eyes

C                G          F       C
On the wings of moths and dragonflies

C                        G               F         C
Through the morning and evening his sun set my sunrise

C                 G            F         C
Let them come to me like the breath I'm taking
