Love always,

               D                             E                   A            D
There are times that walk from you Like some passing afternoon 
A                            E                    D              E
Summer warmed the open window Of her honeymoon 
               D                             E                   A            D
And she chose a yard to burn But the ground remembers her 
A                            E                    D              E
Wooden spoons, her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms 
               D                             E                   A            D
There are things that drift away Like our endless numbered days 
A                            E                    D              E
Autumn blew the quilt right off the Perfect bed she made 
               D                             E                   A            D
And she's chosen to believe In the hymns her mother sings 
A                            E                    D              E
Sunday pulls it's children from the Piles of fallen leaves 
               D                             E                   A            D
There are sailing ships that pass All our bodies in the grass 
A                            E                    D              E
Springtime calls her children 'til she Let's 'em go at last 
               D                             E                   A            D
And she's chosen where to be Though she's lost her wedding ring 
A                            E                    D              E
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds 
               D                             E                   A            D
There are things we can't recall Blind as night that finds us all 
A                            E                    D              E
Winter tucks her children in her Fragile china dolls 
               D                             E                   A            D
But my hands remember hers Rolling around the shady ferns 
A                            E                    D              E
Naked arms are secrets still like Songs I'd never learned 
               D                             E                   A            D
There are names across the sea Only now I do believe 
A                            E                    D              E
Sometimes with the window closed She'll sit and think of me 
               D                             E                   A            D
But she'll mend his tattered clothes And they'll kiss as if they know 
A                            E                    D              E           
A baby sleeps in all our bones So scared to be alone
