[Bridge]
G
Brisk pace, brisk pace
A
I ache to feel an ache
B D
The sentry by the padded cell inside my soul is slain
G A
Free to act according to the nature in his name
B D
The warrior that rests within begins to breathe again
G A
Meet me in a raindrop, falling on a rooftop
B D
Dance with me until we find the words that we should act on.
G A
Meet me in a raindrop, falling on a rooftop
B D
Dance with me until we find the words that we should act on.

When we fail to feel what is never spoken
Cmaj7 D7 G Em7
From my lungs escape the whitest of smoke
Am7 D7 G
Because I've finally found the one
Cmaj7 D7 G Em7
You be the ruse and I'll be the caper
Am7 D7 G
You pirouette and I'll never let you stop
