Verse riff
Late in the evening I think upon,
You and I on the tree and the stone.
My love for you is natural,
self evident like the tree and the stone,
Self assured, freedom of form.
G
Why would we ever second guess,
D
when we both say the first mind is best,
C
Steadily we become,
G
So let it run, let it run.
Interlude
G
And how many times must we be stunned,
D
Every star is a rising sun.
C
I'll be leading on,
G
you be leading on.
Verse riff
Stuck with the forces,
and spin with the moon.
Pull in the tides,
and you back to me soon.
Back to me soon.
Darling I pull back to me soon.
