[Verse 1]
F Eb Gm Time passed hard F Eb And the task was the hardest thing she'd ever do F Eb But she forgot Gm F Eb The moment she saw you Gm F Eb So it would seem to be true: Gm F Eb When cruel birth debases, we forget Gm F When cruel death debases Eb Gm F We believe it erases all the rest Eb That precedes
[Verse 2]

Gm F Eb A shore, a tide, unmoored a sight, abroad: Gm F Eb A dawn, unmarked, undone, undarked (a god) Gm F Eb No time. No flock. No chime, no clock. No end Gm F Eb White star, white ship, Nightjar, transmit: transcend! Gm F Eb White star, white ship, Nightjar, transmit: transcend! Gm F Eb White star, white ship, Nightjar, transmit: transcend!
