He said, I must be dreaming, [A] but I thought [D] I [G] heard the sound, the sound that lovers make
as they [Em] drop down from [A] a [D] window, [G] quiet as cats across the courtyard, moving [D] from shadow
to shadow, [G] past the guards to the [Bm] forest, [D] so [Am] quiet in her still reflection, [G] drawing them down,
drawing them down [Am] to the lake, to the center [C] of [G] her attention.
