F#mWhat's the immaterial subC#mstance
That enBvelopes two
F#mThat one percieves as hC#munger
And the Bother as food
F#mI wake in tangeled coC#mvers
To a sBash of snow,
F#mYou dream in a cartoon gC#marden
I coBuld never know.

          F#m             C#m                    Band so on              
Innocent imitation of how it would be
If one the music entered, you did not retreat
In my imagination, you are cast in gold
Your image a compensation for me to hold
Parallel lines, move so fast
Toward the same point
Infinity is as near as it is far
Parallel lines, move so fast
Toward the same point
Infinity is as near as it is far

F#m

F#m C#m

What's the immaterial substance

That envelopes two

F#m C#m

That one percieves as hunger

And the other as food

F#m C#m

I wake in tangeled covers

To a sash of snow,

F#m C#m

You dream in a cartoon garden

I could never know.

and so on

Innocent imitation of how it would be

If one the music entered, you did not retreat

In my imagination, you are cast in gold

Your image a compensation for me to hold

Parallel lines, move so fast

Toward the same point

Infinity is as near as it is far

Parallel lines, move so fast

Toward the same point

Infinity is as near as it is far
