Out of woman come the man

Spend the rest of his life getting back where he can

As a bow, so a dove

Come the tadpole

With the dark soul, in coal she burn

She burn as I drove into the sun
Ebsus2
Didn't dare look where I had begun
Bb/D
Lost among echoes of things not there
Ebsus2
Watching the sound forming shapes in the air

From the white star
Fsus2
Come the bright car
