Em          D         C
We're not together here
                  Em
Though we lie entwined
                                D
To make room for the other presence
     C                          Em
We both draw back in our minds
         D
I have a prophecy
  C                        Em
Threatening to spill into words
                  D
This growing certainty
     C
Of over


[Chorus]
        G                       D
There once was a time I was sure of the bond
        Em                              C
When my hands and my tongue and my thoughts were enough
         G                  D
We are the same but our lives move along
          Em                            B        Em
And the third one between replaces what once was love


[Verse 2]
 Em          D      Em
Freedom is being alone
  C             Em
I fear liberation
                      D             C
But something more alive than silence
                    Em
Swallows conversation
              D
No pleasing drama
       C            Em
And subtly averted eyes
                 D
The swelling fermata
               C
As the chord dies


[Chorus]
        G                       D
There once was a time I was sure of the bond
        Em                           C
When my hands and my tongue and my thoughts were enough
         G                   D
We are the same but our lives move along
          Em                 B                     Em
And the third one between replaces what once was love


[Bridge]
Em              D                C
There's no denying we feel the third one
  Em
We do
                D       C
I'm tired of hiding, and so are you


[Chorus]
        G                       D
There once was a time I was sure of the bond
        Em                              C
When my hands and my tongue and my thoughts were enough
         G                 D
We are the same but our lives move along
          Em                B                    Em
And the third one between replaces what once was love
