Bm
Five weeks in a prison,
Em
I made no friends.
Bm
There's more time to be done, but
G           A
I've got a week to spend.
Bm
I didn't pay much attention
Em
first time around,
Bm
but now you're hard not to notice,
G      A
right here in my town.

D
Where the stage of my old life
G
meets the cast of the new.
F#m      A                G
Tonights actors me and you.

Chorus:
D           C#m
Each day is taking us closer,
F#                 D
while drawing the curtains to close.
D            C#m
This far, or further, I need to
  F#
know.
D                 C#m
Your increasingly long embraces,
F#               D
are they saying sorry or please?
D                   C#m
I don't know what's happening,
      F#
help me.

Through the streets, on the corners,
there's a scent in the air
I ask you out and I lead you,
I know my way around here
There's a bench I remember and on the way there
I find that the movements
you're making are mirrored in mine

And your hand is held open
intentionally
Or just what I want to see?

Chorus:
Your increasingly long embraces
Are they saying sorry or please?
I don't know what's happening
Help me
I don't normally beg for assistance
I rely on my own eyes to see
But right now they make no sense to me
Right now you make no sense to me
