I've never seen your eyes so wide

I've never seen your appetite quite this occupied

Long ago we agreed to keep it light
A A/g F#m7 F13 Em
So let's be married one more night

Remember when the scenery started fading
C# F#m B7 F#m B7
I held you 'til you learned to walk on air
D E/d
So don't look down, the ground is gone
C#m7 F#m
There's no one waving anyway
B Bm7 E
The smokey life is practiced everywhere
So set your restless heart at ease Take a lesson from these autumn leaves They waste no time waiting for the snow Don't argue now or you'll be late There's nothing to investigate It's light enough, light enough To let it go Light enough To let it go
Remember when the scenery started fading I held you 'til you learned to walk on air So don't look down, the ground is gone There's no one waving anyway The smokey life is practiced everywhere
Come on back if the moment lends You can look up all my very closest friends Light, light enough To let it go It's light, light enough To let it go
