Strange Overtones

I wake up every morningI hear your feet on the stairsYoure in the next apartmentI hear you singing over there

This groove is out of fashionThese beats are 20 years oldI saw you lend a hand toThe ones out standing in the cold

Strange Overtones in the music you are playingI'll harmonizeIt is strong and you are toughBut a heart is not enough

Put on your socks and mittensIts getting colder tonightA snowball in my kitchenI watched it melt before my eyes

Your song still needs a chorusI know you'll figure it outThe rising of the versesA change of key will let you out

Strange overtones though theyre slightly out of fashionI'll harmonizeI see the music in your faceThat your words cannot explain

Strange Overtones in the music you are playingWere not aloneIt is strong and you are toughBut a heart is not enough
