[Verse 1]
G# ( C# ) G#
Somewhere high up in the air there
( C# ) Fm ( C# ) G#
I had long forgotten I belong to you
( C# ) G# ( C# ) G#
Some unconscious stream of twisted logic
( C# ) Fm D# G#
Caught me in its whirlwind, left me black and blue
[Chorus 1]
C# Fm
I was senseless, battered and defenceless
G# D#
Rain became relentless, leaving barren skies
C# Fm
I was broken, all I left unspoken
G# D# G#
Left me torn wide open, barely still alive
[Verse 2]
G# ( C# ) G#
Found your letter sealed away in storage
( C# ) Fm ( C# ) G#
Under my pretences, buried out of view
( C# ) G# ( C# ) G#
I recalled it hidden in a notebook
( C# ) Fm D# G#
Tattered, ruffled pages old but good as new
[Chorus 2]
C# Fm
I was listless, how could I have missed this?
G# D#
If you are the groundswell, I'm tossed in your tide
C# Fm
I was certain if I'd seen it comin'
G# D# G#
I'd have started running back at the starting line

[Verse 3]
G# ( C# ) G#
Well I faltered, left you at the altar
( C# ) Fm ( C# ) G#
Offering my apologies and my gratitude
( C# ) G# ( C# ) G#
Now there's a sinking feeling in my chest
( C# ) Fm D# G#
You're gonna love me less when I return to you
[Chorus 3]
C# Fm
But you were never one to keep a record
G# D#
One to hold against me all I failed to prove
C# Fm
I've been tethered, floating like a feather
G# D# G#
Anxious in my roaming, stranded on the move
