Step out the front door like a ghost
                          Em7
into the fog where no-one notices
                 G
the contrast of white on white.

              Cadd9
And in in between the moon and you
   D
angels get a better view
        Em7                         G
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.

        Cadd9
I walk in the air between the rain
D
through myself and back again.
Em7                              G
Where?             I don't know.

Round here, something radiates.
