|
I wake up ev'ry morning |
|
I hear your feet on the stairs |
|
You're in the next apartment |
|
I hear you singing over there-- |
|
This groove is out of fashion |
|
These beats are 20 years old |
|
I saw you lend a hand to |
|
The ones out standing in the cold-- |
|
Strange Overtones |
|
In the music you are playing |
|
I'll harmonize |
|
It is strong and you are tough |
|
But a heart is not enough- |
|
Put on your socks and mittens |
|
It's getting colder tonight |
|
A snowball in my kitchen |
|
I watched it melt before my eyes-- |
|
Your song still needs a chorus |
|
I know you'll figure it out |
|
The rising of the verses |
|
A change of key will let you out-- |
|
Strange overtones |
|
Though they're slightly out of fashion |
|
I'll harmonize |
|
I see the music in your face |
|
That your words cannot explain |
|
Strange Overtones |
|
In the music you are playing |
|
We're not alone |
|
It is strong and you are tough |
|
But a heart is not enough-- |
