                   Eb         Gm     F 
It's a still life watercolor
                 Eb             Gm   F 
Of a now late afternoon
                         Eb               Gm                                   F 
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
                 Bb                                                   Bb6     Bb7M     Bb6 
And shadows wash the room
                           Gm 
And we sit and drink our coffee
 Ab 
Couched in our indifference
                   G 
Like shells upon the shore
                                 F 
You can hear the ocean roar
                           Eb                   Gm             F 
In the dangling conversation
                             Bb       F         Eb 
And the superficial sighs
               Eb                                   Bb           Bb6     Bb7M     Bb6 
The borders of our lives
                               Eb                     Gm     F 
And you read your Emily Dickinson
               Eb       Gm         F 
And I my Robert Frost
                           Eb                 Gm                     F 
And we note our place with bookmarkers
                 Bb                                                     Bb6   Bb7M   Bb6 
That measure what we've lost
                     Gm 
Like a poem poorly written
                           Ab 
We are verses out of rhythm
 G 
Couplets out of rhyme
         F 
In syncopated time.
                           Eb                   Gm         F 
And the dangling conversation
                             Bb       F         Eb 
And the superficial sighs
                           Eb                                 Bb           B6     B7M     B6 
Are the borders of our lives
                           Eb                   Gm                       F 
Yes we speak of things that matter
                     Eb                       Gm             F 
With words that must be said
                       Eb         Gm     F 
Can analysis be worthwhile?
                       Bb                                 Bb6     Bb7M   Bb6 
Is the theatre really dead?
             Gm 
And how the room has softly faded
                   Ab 
And I only kiss your shadow
     G 
I cannot feel your hand
                             F 
You're a stranger now unto me
                                     Eb                   Gm     F 
Lost in the dangling conversation
                             Bb       F         Eb 
And the superficial sighs
                     Eb                                   Bb     Bb6   Bb7M   Bb6   Bb 
In the borders of our lives
