G
run like a race for family
when you hear like you’re alone
Em
the rusted gears of morning
to faceless busy phones
C
we gladly run in circles
D
but the shape we’re meant to make
G
is gone

G
love is a tired symphony
you hum when you awake
Em
love is a crying baby
mama warned you not to shake
C
love is the best sensation
D G
hiding in the lion’s mane

G
so i’ll clear the road , the gravel
and the thorn bush in your path
Em
burn the scented oil
that i’ll drip into your bath
C
the water’s there to warm you
D
and the earth is warmer when
G
you laugh .

G
love is a scene i render
when you catch me wide awake
Em
love’s a dream you enter
though i shake and shake and shake you
C
love is the best endeavor waiting
D G
in the lion’s mane
