Strange Overtones

I wake up every morning

I hear your feet on the stairs

You're in the next apartment

I hear you singing over there

This groove is out of fashion

These beats are 20 years old

I saw you lend a hand to

The ones out standing in the cold

Strange overtones in the music you are playing

I'll harmonize

It is strong and you are tough

But a heart is not enough

How long have I been missing

It's getting colder tonight

Snowfalls reminiscing

I watched it melt before my eyes

Your song still needs a chorus

I know you'll figure it out

The rising of the verses

A change of key will let you out

Strange overtones in the music you are playing

I'll harmonize

It is strong and you are tough

But a heart is not enough

Strange overtones in the music you are playing

We're not alone

It is strong and you are tough

But a heart is not enough
