about

Written originally by Justine Lucas in 2007, then revised by her and Brendan O'loughlin in January 2010.

lyrics

Dm--G
Blind as can be
she walks in front of me
with her best friend
she says let me be your eyes,
show me how you see

And I watch their shadows shrink
with each passing streetlight
their walking with the trees
but you can't smell the pine
on these city

F--G
Their walking up a hill now
and they're just trying to get home
and I'll fallow them
home

(instrumental interlude)

Dm--G
She pours her own drinks
and she's a witness to what hears
she can feel her city spinning,
raises her glass to god
drinks to what she fears

F--G
She's reaching' for the walls now
tappin' her shoes to find those steps
and she'll touch everything in this world
until nothing is left
untouched

(instrumental)
Dm,C,G
