From Above Lyrics & Tabs by Ben Folds & Nick Hornby
From Above
guitar chords lyrics
They even looked at each other once
Across the crowded bar
He was with Martha
She was with Tom
Neither of them really knew
What was going on
A strange feeling of never
Heartbeats becoming synchronized
It's been that way forever
But most of the time it's just near misses
And kisses once at a bookstore
Once at a party
She came in as he was leaving
And years ago at the movies
She sat behind him, the 6: 30 showing
She came in as he was leaving
And years ago at the movies
She sat behind him, the 6: 30 showing
Of 'While You Were Sleeping'
He never once looked around
It's so easy from above
You can really see it all
People who belong together
Lost and sad and small
But there's nothing to be done for them
It doesn't work that way
Sure we all have soul-mates
But we walk past them every day, oh no
And it's not like they were ever
Actually unhappy in the lives they lived
He married Martha, she married Tom
Just this fake notion
That something was wrong
An ache, an absence, a phantom limb
An itch that could never be scratched
It's so easy from above
You can really see it all
People who belong together
Lost and sad and small
But there's nothing to be done for them
It doesn't work that way
Sure we all have soul-mates
But we walk past them every day, oh no
Neither of them knew what was going on
A strange feeling of never
Heartbeats becoming synchronized
It'll stay that way forever
Who knows whether that's how it should be
Maybe a ghost lived in that vacancy
Maybe that's how books get written
Maybe that's why songs get sung
Maybe we are the unlucky ones
It's so easy from above
You can really see it all
People who belong together
Lost and sad and small
But there's nothing to be done for them
It doesn't work that way
Sure we all have soul-mates
But we walk past them every day, oh no
Maybe that's how books get written
Maybe that's why songs get sung
Maybe we are the unlucky ones
Maybe that's how books get written
Maybe that's why songs get sung
Maybe we are the unlucky ones
