Ringing in the background chiming low
it doesn't make a sound but I hear it, though
a symphony defined by its missing note
it doesn't have a shape, but it leaves a hole
I live my life, listening
walking around
to the beat of something
in the background, missing
- one note short of a perfect chord
And I can almost hear it,
the piece it all resolves around
One note short of a perfect chord
One note short of a perfect chord
One note short of a perfect chord
a perfect chord
a perfect chord
Ringing in the background, full
and beautiful, and true.
The empty part that aches
just makes it mean the more to you
You fill the missing piece in
with your wish, and hope, and mind
You know that life is beautiful, if only
You could find
You live your life, listening
walking around
to the beat of something
in the background,
missing
- one note short of a perfect chord
And you can almost hum it,
the piece that makes it all work out
one note short of a perfect chord
one note short of a perfect chord
one note short of a perfect chord
a perfect chord
a perfect chord
We live our lives, listening
walking around
to the beat of something
in the background,
missing
- one note short of a perfect chord
We can almost hold it,
the point it all dissolves around
One note short of a perfect chord
one note short of a perfect chord
one note short of a perfect chord
a perfect chord
a perfect chord.
