Eternal circle
3/4 (medium waltz)

   C                          G7       F    C
I sang the song slowly as she stood in the shadows
                   E7           F             C
she stepped to the light as my silver strings spun
                    E7          F           C
she called with her eyes to the tune I was playing
                    C    Am6 Fm  G7      C
but the song it was long and I'd only begun


through a bullet of light her face was reflecting
the fast fading words that rolled from my tongue
with a long distance look her eyes was on fire
but the song it was long and there was more to be sung

my eyes danced a circle across her clear outline
with her head tilted sideways she called me again
as the tune drifted out she breathed hard through the echo
but the song it was long and it was far to the end

I glanced at my guitar and played it pretending
that all of the eyes out there, I could see none
as her thoughts pounded hard like the pierce of an arrow
but the song it was long and it had to be done

as the tune finally folded I laied down the guitar
then looked for the girl who'd stayed for so long
but her shadow was missing, for all of my searching
so I picked up my guitar and began the next song
