Chords

Originally by Anne Dodson, 1989 (?) [Verse 1]
A
It's in your eyes,

                          Bm
All the things we've been longing to speak of;

Bm
It's in your eyes,

                    A
But too soon to respond.

A
The gentle light

                  Bm
That still shines out with confusion,

      E                  E7
But, till it's time to speak,

             A
It's in your eyes.
[Verse 2]
A
It's in your smile,

                           Bm
The subtle gifts that the years turn to small lines;

Bm
It's in your smile,

                  A
Lips I only have seen.

A
Unless the time comes

            Bm
When those lips turn to know mine,

   E                      E7
I live with the unasked questions

          A
In your smile.
[Chorus]
F#m         C#m
Speak to me one word

   D                  A
Before the evening's turning;

Bm                                E
I'll do the best I can to pay in kind.

F#m                C#m
There'll never be another time

     D                  A
So sweet with unasked questions.

Bm                              E7
It's not yet time to speak our mind.
[Verse 3]
A
It's in your touch,

                Bm
That soft, accidental persuasion,

Bm
It's in your touch,

                             A
The hands that softly brush by;

A
The strong draw

        Bm
Between bodies unknowing.

      E             E7
Till time finds the answers,

             A
It's in your eyes.
[Chorus]
F#m         C#m
Speak to me one word

   D                  A
Before the evening's turning;

Bm                                E
I'll do the best I can to pay in kind.

F#m                C#m
There'll never be another time

     D                  A
So sweet with unasked questions.

Bm                              E7
It's not yet time to speak our mind.
