D/F#

Specters move like pilot flames

Their widows toast at St. Angel

Better times collide with now

The tears were warm, I feel them still

Their heat to vapor and disperse

And cloud our eyes with weary glaze

You raise your glass and may exclaim,

"I'll put my hands on the truth by God"

But it's faster, love, than you and me

D/F#

Faster than the speed of gravity

D D/F#

That's how it catches you from falling

G D

And how it always, always, always slips away

Specters move like pilot flames

Their widows toast at St. Angel

Better times collide with now

And better times

G D

And better times are coming still
