Standard (EADGBE)

When the lake's on fire

With all the world's desires

When he shakes the stars above

When we lose the ones we love

When the seasons lose their grip

When the tightrope walker slips

I'm counting all the possibilities

When the past becomes the now

When the lost becomes the found

When we fall in love with war

When the angel fucks the whore

When the road we travel on

Takes us back where we came from

I'm counting all the possibilities

For dancing on this lazy afternoon

In the comfort of the world

In the arms of my big nurse

From the science of the heart

To each animal and plant

Compact, relaxed- intact, give thanks

I'm counting all the possibilities

For dancing on this lazy afternoon
