Strange Overtones lyrics
I wake up every morning
I hear your feet on the stairs
You're in the next apartment
I hear you singing over there--
This groove is out of fashion
These beats are 20 years old
I saw you lend a hand to
The ones out standing in the cold--
Strange Overtones
In the music you are playing
I'll harmonize
It is strong and you are tough
But a heart is not enough-
Put on your socks and mittens
It's getting colder tonight
A snowball in my kitchen
I watched it melt before my eyes--
Your song still needs a chorus
I know you'll figure it out
The rising of the verses
A change of key will let you out--
Strange overtones
Though they're slightly out of fashion
I'll harmonize
I see the music in your face
That your words cannot explain
Strange Overtones
In the music you are playing
We're not alone
It is strong and you are tough
But a heart is not enough--
Part of these releases
