Thinner

C C Your words they flow like water C I grow but you're still taller C And I'll wait in this river C Like summers words I'm thinner C* C Ran by sluice of current C Boats borne back eyes so fervent C But I'll wait in this river C This water's cold with winter C (change to strumming) C F My bare feet on the concrete C F Your tears they fall on pine street C F And I'll wait in this creek bed C F Your summer words in my head C Rivers mouth it babbles C My response is your fable C I'll go with the current but C Tell me darling do I look thinner Am F C But oh did you falter in your words Am F C Oh did you cry out for all the world Am F C Was it that folly in your step Am F C Or was it your sorrow and its depth C F My bare feet on the concrete C F Your tears they fall on pine street C F And I'll wait in this creek bed C F Your summer words in my head C F
