affection , the gifted architect
C D Em G C Em D
is making a draft and beautiful design
G D Em
the options and possibilities
C D Em G C Em D
are endless when we connect and re – align
G D Em
collections of books and documents
C D Em G C Em D
arise and parade around my cluttered desk
G D Em
reworking the math and measurements
C D Em G C
until i’m convinced these plans are picturesque
Em D
like mountains in the midwest

reaction creates the columns dark
C D Em D C Em D
and wide like the roads around fort lauderdale
G D Em
the structures begin to take their shape
C D Em D C Em D
before i’ve designed the public monorail
G D Em
the turnpike and high – speed motorway
C D Em D C Em D
connect and enclose the quaint suburban streets
G D Em
the airport , the broad suspension bridge
C D Em D C
the lake and the beach where several rivers meet
Em D
compounded from the spreadsheet

G C Em
a city sparkles in the night
C
how can it glow so bright?
G Em C D
the neighborhoods surround the soft florescent light
G C Em
designer skyline in my head
C
abstract and still well – read
G Em C D
you went from numbered lines to buildings overhead
