E
The crowd at the gate is hanging on late like posters from some lost campaign
F#m
Suits loose and frayed, their hats blown away, sails catching nothing but rain
A
I stand with a rope tied firm to the hope that will leave a good night where it fell
E F#m E F#m E
and that light burst and free is coming for me, let's love and let's do loving well
F#m E
E
Now I woke in a cloud after speaking aloud to a vision of you in the street
F#m
Back in a room the heat in full bloom I see lilies grow wild at my feet
A
So down the line I'll keep your heart in mine and our lungs ring an hourly bell
E F#m E F#m E
It's as clear as the moon as it follows and taps on my shoulder; I'm under a spell
F#m E
E
Out here in the night where I once lost the fight and abandoned all hope for a home
F#m
I seek out her shape, you know she is my escape and I'll follow wherever she goes
A
The hinge of her door well it groans and roars and what stands between us like a veil
E F#m E F#m E
Is my fear and my doubt, but I turn and sing darling, let's love and let's do loving well
E F#m E
let's love and let's do loving well
E F#m E
let's love and let's do loving well
