Five Guitars Lyrics

Listen to the sound your heart makes
A feeling you have can't be wrong
Attitudes can change and the bridge breaks
But the music of spirit plays on
The backup band will make mistakes
But I'll just keep playing along
Listen to the sound your heart makes
Cause it'll be gone before long

Five guitars
And they all look like yours
And I wish that you could see them
And hear the songs they've played
Five guitars, a constellation without stars
If the symmetry's uneven, how can we see straight?
Oh listen to the words you can't say
There's a shadow that cloaks every sound
What is it about my birthday?
Everything gets turned around
Listen to the music your heart plays
Record it, and write it down
Everything is seen at least two ways: From the clouds and from underground

Five guitars
Oh, we've all been too far
And the myth says keep on going
And soon enough you'll fade
Five guitars I don't know where you are
But what's the use of knowing?
The choice is already made
I listen to the things your eyes say
But there's something that I can't translate
Something that's cold like an autumn day
Something that stayed up too late
The room is filled with music I can't play
At least not in my current state
Listen to me now, I can't stay
The urge to forget is too great
Five guitars
And they all look like ours
And I bet you'd like to see them
And hear the sounds they've made
