G I remember a conversation, Em at a restaurant
C With a friend of mine, he?d a successful mind
G And he told me of his D life
G And the plans he?d made to come this far
Em Had gone so well and now we're all so proud of C him
And he told me how
But I G couldn?t bear to D listen
(G) Cause all my life I've heard
Of the (Em) dreams of the organized
To be the C best in the company
To win the G awards but that?s not me D
Cause G all my life all I ever Em wanted
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence
G All my life, Em all my life
C Was a love that lasted longer than the G silence
G I had to say that I had to leave
Cause Em it was on my mind
That all he C set in me were insecurities
But that G dream was never mine D
Cause the plans G I thought I?d made so far
Had gone Em alright but all that I feel now is doubt C
And he told me why
But I G couldn?t bear to listen D
G Cause all my life I've heard
Of the dreams Em of the organized
To be the C best in the company
To win the G awards but that?s not me D
Cause G all my life all I ever Em wanted
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence
G All my life, Emall my life
Was a C love that lasted longer than the G silence
