lyrics

Mandala words/music: C. Fraher

D

Bm A G
V1 At the first light of day,

D A
You started to go, I thought I was dreaming.

Bm A G
Then it hit me so hard,

D A G

Bm A G D
V2 As the time marches on, it softens the burn,

A

Bm A G D
Now a uselessness hangs on every word,

A G
We traded in earnest.

G F#m

Bm A
Even trying, even trying

F#m G F#m G F#m G F#m A

D G D G ...
