Nickel Creek Seven Wonders Lyrics

Intro:
Verse 1:
When shadows fall he'll close his eyes
To hear the clocks unwind,
Powerless to leash the hands of time
Kindgoms fall the earth revolves the rain will come this spring,
and nothing he could say would change a thing
Chorus:
Seven wonders crowed the man
Knowing six are gone
And how the great illusion lingers on
Verse 2:
He can't enfold the sun or moon or wind within his hands
But count the times he'll shout the great I am
With all the while a pontiff smile, veiling his disgrace
At never owning more than second place.
(Chorus)
(Violin Solo)
Chorus:
Seven wonders crowed the man
Knowing six are gone
And how the great illusion lingers
All the grand illusion lingers
While the sad confusion lingers on
Ends on: Am7/9
