Cm       A#                D#
It came upon the midnight clear
      Fm
That glorious sign of old
Cm          A#             D#
Enraptured secret sign of fear
    Fm
In brave disguises

Cm             A#
Old shoes and thirty feet
     Cm                 Fm 
The prophet sighed of prophecy
Cm          A#
I resign to petty things
      Cm            Fm 
Like angels bending on their knees

Chorus:
D#              A#                Fm
Do you delight, do you delight in me?
   G#maj7
(I laughed about it)
D#              A#                  Fm
Come to me now, come to me now and bring
      G#maj7
(That rapturous moment)
D#                A#                   Fm
I wasn't changed, I wasn't changed one bit
        G#maj7
(Though you may doubt it)
D#                   A#                  Fm
And I don't suppose, I don't suppose you care
    G#maj
(To ask about it)

The dead of winter takes a grip
And moves around us
All night our labors clap and kiss
Like working mothers

Old wounds and thirty feet
The clock it sounds of properties
I resign to glorious things
Like angels bending on their knees

Chorus

I will delight, I will delight in this
(Though you may doubt it)
Come to me now, come to me now, my kiss
(And ask about it)
I will delight, I will delight in this
(Though you may doubt it)
Come to me now, come to me now, my kiss
