Standard (EADGBE)

In parallel sea what would I be?

My first love said to me,

"Tears out for the world to see"

I would not be

I did not see the chinaberry tree

Tears out, it would feel so

Heavenly, heavenly, heavenly

Hard now to picture a me

Without a you, without a you

Bridge

"Don't interfere"

Part of her back was frozen

For the remainder of the war

"Don't be concerned"

But I never learned how not to be

As my first love said to me,

"I don't care. I'm not there."

So that I could not sleep

My whole being was falling apart

So that I soon cried out,

"Dear friends, hold me!"
