Intro
[Am]
I c[Am]annot follow y[Bm]ou, my love
[Am]You cannot follow m[Bm]e
[D]I am the distance you p[A]ut between
All of the m[G]oment[B7/F#]s that we will b[E]e
You kn[D]ow who I [A]am
You've st[D]ared at the s[A]un
Well [D]I am the [A]one who loves
Ch[G]anging from nothing to [E]one[Am]
Sometimes I need you naked
Sometimes I need you wild
I need you to carry my children in
Yes and I need you to kill a child
You know who I am
You've stared at the sun
Well I am the one who loves
Changing from nothing to one
If you should ever track me down
I will surrender right there
I will leave with you one broken man
Whom I will teach you to repair
You know who I am
You've stared at the sun
Well I am the one who loves
Changing from nothing to one
I cannot follow you, my love
You cannot follow me
I am not life, I am not death
I am not slave or free
Oh you know who I am
You've stared at the sun
Well I am the one who loves
Changing from nothing to one
Sometimes I'm gonna need you naked
Sometimes gonna need you wild
I need you to carry my children in
And I need you to kill a child
Oh you know who I am
You've stared at the sun
Well I am the one who loves
Changing from nothing to one
