E A
Tasting you in rain, I walk down to the train
E A
Trying not to look down
E A
This day could someday be an aniversary
E A
everything is light and sound
E A
Facing forwards going slowly wait for you to show me
E A
where this train wants to go
E A
living by the hour I stop for every flower
E A
everything is soft and slow
Gbm A E
now all these tastes improve through the view that comes with you
Gbm A E
like they handed me my life, for the first time it felt right
Play Intro
E A
Thank you for making me see there's a life in me
E A
it was dying to get out
E A
holding you we make two spoons beneath an april moon
E A
everything is soft and sweet
Gbm A E
this cigarette it could seduce a nation with its smoke
Gbm A E
crawling down my tired throat scratches part of me that's purring
A
softly stirring
E A
I'm a captian of industry, smoking famously
E A
feet up on the window ceil
E A
looking at all these trees I feel affinity with everything so soft and still
Gbm A E
budding at my fingertips touching you I start to bloom
Gbm A E
alive with trains and passing ships soft and sweet along your lips now
A
I go oh wow
E A
Thank you for taking me from my monastary
E A
I was dying to get out
E A
with tears of gratitude I like my latitude
E A
cross-town train to you
Gbm A E
now all these tastes improve through the view that comes with you
Gbm A E
like they handed me my life for the first time it felt worth it, like I deserved it.

This is quite possibly one of the most amazing love songs I've ever heard. This song mellows me out and makes me feel good just about any time. Jets is definately an incredible band.

"thank you for making me see there's a life in me / it was dying to get out" "touching you I start to bloom" my gawd this is one of the only songs by jets to brazil that i like, but, yet, it is one of my favorite songs of all time and by any band for that matter. every single mix tape ive made has had this song on it.

This is a very good song about love and the time in a person's life when they realize what that love has done for them. If you are feeling down listen to this song. If you are high on life because you have found that special someone, listen to this song. No matter what mood you are in, this song will do nothing short up bringing you up a few notches.

this song makes me very happy and very sad at the same time. on the one hand, I'm very glad that this sort of love does exist in the world. on the other hand, why doesn't it exist for me? at any rate, it is a beautiful love song without any of that sugar-coated, flowery crap. it is about being READY for this kind of elation that comes along with honest love. it's just an incredible song, musically and lyrically. i love the lines "tasting you and rain" "this cigarette, it could seduce a nation with its smoke" and "touching you i start to bloom" - it reminds me of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, for some reason

I have to say it again. This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, and it's been too long since I've been able to see it for all it's worth.

it's the perfect love song. that's all there is to it. it's not cliche and doesn't sound like you've heard it before. everytime i listen to it i feel something new.

But wait... I forgot to say that this is my favorite song in the universe. nothing compares to listening to this song while looking up at the stars at night just thinking about "where this train wants to go"... but they definatly capture alot of emotion in this song ..
