Swan Song In A Silent Movie By: Noah Eaton 3/27/04 (intro chord progression) (riff 1: throughout verses) I can't read your lips, there's just too much I miss, each reminisce leaves me transfixed. I screamed from the top of my lungs every night, dreaming that you'd return before my very eyes now here you are, but it don't feel right (riff 2: throughout pre-chorus) I'm ashamed to admit, you'd look more beautiful to me, like a priceless child, in a classic silent movie, when you walked around me, whispering terms of endearment into my ear, it's scary when you always listen, but you just can't hear... (chorus: chord progression) You break my heart, when I hear you sing, when I hear you sing... YOU KNOW HOW IT MAKES ME DIZZY... (riff 1: verse) Burning the midnight oil, wrapping my heart in aluminum foil, preserving the freshness of you where it recoils. (riff 2: pre-chorus) I'm in a state of hebephrenia, I'm locked in my own recovery room, lethargy invades my dreams, since we bid adieu, I want to send the memory away from whence it came, but I'm grateful by getting to feel you, your self-portrait stole my heart, just a moment too soon... (chorus: chord progression) You break my heart, when I hear you sing, when I hear you sing... YOU KNOW HOW IT MAKES ME DIZZY... (bridge: solo) (chorus: chord progression) You break my heart, when I hear you sing, when I hear you sing... YOU KNOW HOW IT MAKES ME DIZZY... (coda: continuing chords) "You'll find something that's enough to keep you But if the bright lights don't receive you You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20 |

Dear Noah, your Swan Song is beautifully melancholic. Your heart is in the healing process. Love and hugs. Margherita ![]() |

"I'm locked in my own recovery room," ~ Wow, after all that I have just gone through, that line really hits home! Fortunately I found the key and I'm out of there and almost fully recovered! Someday I hope to hear your sweet voice singing your wonderful songs! ![]() Loves 'n hugs, EA |
