[Verse 1]
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Your smile ...beams like sunset ...on a gull's wing,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
And the leaves ...dance and play ...after you,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Take my hand, ...and hold it ..as you would a flower,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Take care with my heart, oh, darling, she's made of glass!

[Verse 2]
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Your eyes ...feel like silence ...resting on me,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
And the birds ...cease to sing ...when you rise,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Ride easy ...your fairy stallion ...you have mounted,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Take care how you fly, my precious, ...you might fall down!

[Verse 3]
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
In the pastel skies of sun - set ...I have wandered,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
With my eyes ...and ears, and heart ...strained to the full,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
I know I tasted the essence, ...in the few days,
C/G Fmaj7/C C/G Fmaj7/C
Take care who you love, my precious, he ...might not know!
