                    F

1. You're a painting with symbols deep,

                                           Bb            C           F

    a symphony, soft as it shifts from dark beneath.

                          F

    A poem that flows, caressing my skin,

                            Bb                E         Am

    in all of these things you reside and I

                  C                  Dm                    E

    want to flow from the pen, bow and brush,

           Am                C            Dm        E

    with paper and string, and canvas touch.

            Am           C        Dm          E

    With ink in the air, to dust your light...

                                                   F

    from morning to the black of night.

 

                   C          E           F

This is my call I belong to You,

                  C                       E                 F

this is my call to sing the melodies of You.

                   C            E               F       - G

This is my call I can do nothing else,

                            F

I can do nothing else !

2. You're the scent of an unfound bloom,

                                       Bb       C         F

    a simple tune I only write variations to.

                                 F

    A drink that will knock me down on the floor,

                           Bb               E             Am

    a key that will unlock the door where I

                 C                 Dm      E

    hear a voice sing familiar themes,

             Am                  C              Dm        E

    then beckons me weave notes in between.

         Am              C       Dm          E

    a bow and a string, a tap and glass,

                                                   F

    you pour me till the day has passed.

 

                   C          E           F

This is my call I belong to You,

                  C                       E                 F

this is my call to sing the melodies of You.

I can do nothing else !
