G 
Here in this room this narrow room where life began 
  
             C          G 
When we were young last night 

  D7 
I feel your back pressed close to me 
  
    C                          D7     G 
And hear your steady breathing as you sleep 



Then as the first soft glow of dawn  

                             C         G 
Moves silver grey like paint along the wall 

  D7 
I touch your hand and feel your ring  

    C                  D7             G 
And know this night is all we'll ever have 


                          D7 
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes 

                                         C      G 
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there 

                                 D7 
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind 

                                      C       G 
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there 



I know so well that this is all there is  

                       C         G 
And when we leave this room it's gone 

   D7 
My mind is clear as we walk down 
  
    C                       D7        G 
The crooked little steps to the front door 



A ray of sun that ricochets  

                                C         G 
From off the rooftop lights our stumbling way 

  D7 
I touch your hand and feel your ring  

    C                  D7             G 
And know this night is all we'll ever have 


                          D7 
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes 

                                         C      G 
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there 

                                 D7 
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind 

                                      C       G 
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there 


                          D7 
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes 

                                         C      G 
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there 

                                 D7 
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind 

                                      C       G 
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
