Promise that our love won't die

Shaking in my arms you softly lie

Without me you'd fall apart 
E                 B 
I've seen it all before

I'm not gonna buy it it anymore

I've been trying to keep a flame 
             A 
Burning with desire 
C#m              B      A                   B 
You keep playing games  anywhere there's a fire
