[VERSE 1]
Dm F C7/E Dm
Leave the sleep and let the springtime talk
Bb F C Dm
in tongues from the time before man
F C7/E F
listen to a daffodil tell her tale
Gm Bb C Dm
Let the guest in, walk out, be the first to greet the morn
F C7/E Dm
The meadows of heaven await harvest
Bb F C Dm
the cliffs un-jumped cold waters untouched
F C7/E F
The elsewhere creatures yet unseen
Gm
Finally your number came up
Bb C Dm
Free fall awaits the brave.

Come, surf the clouds, race the dark,

Dm F C7/E Dm
The answer to the riddle before your eyes
Bb F C Dm
is in dead leaves and fleeting skies
F C7/E F
returning swans and sedulous mice
Gm
writings on the garden's book
Bb C Dm
in the minute of a lover's look.
F C/E Gm Dm
Building a sandcastle close to the shore
Bb F C Dm
A house of cards from a worn out deck.
F C/E Bb F
A home from the fellowship, poise and calm,
Gm Bb C Dm
writing lyrics for the song only you can understand..
