A                E
I don’t really know how to write poetry
A                             E
But on nights like these the words
seem to flow straight through me
A                   E               F#
I don’t think you truly understand how
                    B   B  
much this means to me

I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem
to flow straight through me
I don't think you truly understand how much
this means to me

I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem
to come straight to me
And waves of silence and the way the trees
they sway so slowly
I don't truly understand it all

I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem
to flow straight through me
I don't think you truly understand how much
this means to me
