Strange Overtones - We Barbarians

I wake up every morning

I hear your feet on the stairs

You’re in the next apartment

I hear you singing over there

This groove is out of fashion

These beats are 20 years old

I saw you lend a hand to

The ones standing in the cold

Strange overtones in the music you are playing

I’ll harmonize

It is strong and you are tyough

But a heart is not enough

Put on your socks and mittens

Its getting colder tonight

A snowball in my kitchen

I watched it melt before my eyes

Your song still needs a I know youll figure it out

The rising of the verses

A change of key will let you out

Strange overtones though theyre slightly out of fashion

Ill harmonize

I see the music in your face

That your words cannot explain

Strange Overtones in the music you are playing

Were not alone

It is strong and you are tough

But a heart is not enough
