Intro: Bm A G A Bm G A D
verse 1:
Bm A
The touch of lips the close of eyes
G A
They matter more than you surmise
Bm G
I hide it all in secret boxes
G A D
Until tomorrow when we first meet
verse 2:
Bm A
I watch you fade before my eyes
G A
I can't take it, but I won?t look away
Bm G
Maybe the fires that feel so cold
G A D
They won?t completely die away
Bm A
I don't want to, I don't want you
G A D
I don't want you to forget
Bm G
I don't want to, I don't want you
G A D
I don't want you to forget
verse 3:
Bm A
I may not let you see my pain
G A
I may not speak hard words in anger
Bm G
To you maybe it isn?t really strange
G A D
You being loved by a stranger
Bm A
I won?t give you up just yet
G A
I will come calling at your door
Bm A
Ours is a home we can't get to anymore
(Chorus)
verse 4:
Bm A
Behind your eyes there is a distance
G A
I ask you if you?d like to dance
Bm G
You mistake me for a healer
G A D
I'm just a desperate man stealing one last chance
