Intro:
Riff 1
Riff 2 (x2)


(Riff 2)
She stays pressed against the wall
So she can see the door
(Riff 2)
In case the laughing strangers crawl and
Crush the petals on the floor
(Riff 3)
She thanks you kindly
So serene
    (Riff 2)
She needs you like she needs her thanks
To tell her that the world is clean
   (Riff 4)
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
(Riff 2)
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
(Riff 2)
Today
(Riff 2)

Riff 4

(Riff 2)
Pass the crystal spread the Tarot
In illusion comfort lies
(Riff 2)
The safest way the straight and narrow
No confusion no surprise
(Riff 3)
She thanks you kindly
Turns away
    (Riff 2)
She needs you like she needs her pills
To tell her that the world's okay
   (Riff 4)
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
(Riff 2)
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
(Riff 2)
Today
