Bm G F# E

He seems alone and silent, thoughts remain without an answer
Bm G F# E
Afraid and uninvited he slowly drifts away


D Bm
Moved by desire and fear
G A
Breaking delicate wings


D Gadd9 D Gadd9
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
Bm Asus4 Gadd9 Em
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean


Bsus2 Gadd9 Bsus2 Gadd9
Bsus2 Gadd9 A Em


Bsus2 Gadd9
As the rain is pouring down, tears of sorrow wash his mind
Esus4 E C+11 Asus2
Drifting with the current, this stream of life flows on
Bsus2 Gadd9
He seems alone and silent, waiting on his hands and knees
Esus4 E C+11 Asus2
The chill of winter's darkness sits quietly


D G
Moved by desire and fear
D G
he takes a few steps away


D Gadd9 D Gadd9
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
Bm Asus4 Gadd9 Em
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean


Gadd9 A
And she listens...
Gadd9 A
And she listens... openly


Bm G F# E
Bm G F# E


D5/A D5/Bb D5/G Fsus2 D5/A
He pours his soul into the water reflecting the mystery
D5/Bb D5/G Fsus2
She carries him away and the winds die slowly


Gadd9 A
And she listens... openly
Gadd9 A
And she listens... openly


D Gadd9 D Gadd9
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
Bm Asus4 Gadd9 Em
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean
D Gadd9 D Gadd9
Lifting shadows off a dream
Bm Asus4 Gadd9 Em
Lifting shadows off a dream
