Lyrics
Verse 1: You’re warm as we make love Under the candle lit sheets. (mmm...) Soft skin and tempting blue eyes. No drug can keep me this high.... Chorus: But you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. But you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. Acoustic riff lead-in: Verse 2: I'm cold, and you're getting colder. We know, as the warmth leaves. You come and go as you please. You’re gone, but still in my dreams. Chorus: But you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. But you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. Acoustic Riff: (Rock Guitar Solo) Verse 3: Our love can't compare To the closed, long, blank stares. When I’m told “There’s nothing now.” I love you so much, but I don't know......how. Chorus: So you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. Yeah you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending............. Chorus 2: And you’re drifting, you're drifting away And the mercury is descending. Yeah you’ve drifted, you've drifted away And we’ve all but ended. (But then again) Reprise Acoustic Intro: Diamonds: You’re warm. You're warm. You’re warm. verses: Emin G D Amin and same chord riff answer sequences. chorus: mostly C/G C/G G D C/G C/G Em D C/G C/G C/G C/G reprise: Emin G D (Amin and Emin-pick down) sequence
