Am
It started with a dedication
C F G
"lost in admiration - happy birthday - i'm forever yours - blossom"
Am
Faded red inside a tiny book of butterflies
C F
I smiled surprised at how when flickered through
G
The wings flew by spelled out my name
Dm
Six months went by the summer lost
C G
Obsessively the letters dropped into my life
Am
The same soft blood smooth flowing hand
Dm C
"please try to understand - i have to see you - have to feel you -
G Am
Tell you all the ways i need you - yours forever in love"
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
It varies but the smallest things
Dm Em
You never know how anything will change
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
And alters but the smallest things
Dm G
You never know how anything will fade
Intro
Am C
The year grew old incessantly she wrote to me
F
She'd started smoking poetry!
G
I laughed in recognition of a favorite phrase
Am
She'd pulled me in...
I answered her
C
A christmas card in sepia
F
Arranging when and where
G
And how the two of us should meet...
Dm
Her opening so well prepared
C
A nervous smile
G
I couldn't take my eyes from her
She whispered
Am
"can i use some of your lipstick?"
Dm
It was perfect so believable
C G
I couldn't help but feel that it was real
Am
And kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
It varies but the smallest things
Dm Em
You never know how anything will change
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
And alters but the smallest things
Dm G
You never know how anything will fade
INTRO
Am C
So alone into the cold new year without another word from her
F G
I wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the spring
Am C
But weeks went by with no reply untill once more my birthday came
F G
And with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same...
Dm C
"i'm sorry - blame infatuation - blame imagination
G Am
I was sure you'd be the one but i was wrong -
Dm C
It seems reality destroys our dreams - i won't forget you blossom"
G Am
Faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes...
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
It varies but the smallest things
Dm Em
You never know how anything will change
F
Strange attraction spreads its wings
C
And alters but the smallest things
Dm
You never know, you never know, and you never know...
