[verse 1]
C
In our socks we slide across the floor
G
like we are angels over water
C G
comin home to see your eyes
C
and the beards we fake from yarn and tape
G
can’t cover up the smiles we make
Am
or the nights we stay up
C
laughing til we cry
[pre-chorus]
C
I know inside that we can hide
G
as happy as two clams
C Em
and if we fight we’ll do it right
D* D
with mittens on our hands
[chorus]
C
cause we are spoons
G
the forks and knives are lonely in their drawer
C
underneath the covers we are warm
Am C G D* D
lying quiet waiting for the cold and frosty morning
C G
and in my room i can see the sunlight in your hair
Am
and my reflection in your stare
C G D* D
lets me know that it’s just us against the world
[harmonica explosion]
C G C G
[verse 2]
C
At a table set for two
G
I’ll make some tea for you
Am C
with spoons that stir like hearts on fire
[pre-chorus]
[chorus]
[harmonica is back for more action]
