Intro: Am Dm7 Cadd4 Gsus4 

Am              Cadd4               Gsus4 
Just when I believed I couldn't ever want for more. 
Am              Cadd4               Gsus4 
This ever changing world pushes me through another door. 
Dm7   Am     Cadd4            Gsus4 
   I saw you smile And my mind could not erase the beauty of your face 
Dm7   Am     Cadd4            Gsus4 
   Just for a while, Won't you let me shelter you. 

C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the night 
C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the memory 
C/G        Cadd4          Gsus4 
I wish that I could give you something more, 
That I could be yours 

Am Dm7 Cadd4 Gsus4 

Am              Cadd4               Gsus4 
How do we explain something that took us by surprise 
Am              Cadd4               Gsus4 
Promises in vain Love that is real, but in disguise 
Dm7   Am     Cadd4            Gsus4 
  What happens now Do we break another rule, let our lovers play the fool? 
Dm7   Am     Cadd4            Gsus4 
  I don't know how to stop feeling this way 

C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the night 
C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the memory 
C/G        Cadd4          Gsus4 
I wish that I could give you something more 

 Bm                                        A 
Well, I think that I've been true to everybody else but me 
            Cadd4                      Gsus4 
And the way I feel about you makes my heart long to be free 
 Bm                                        A 
Every time I look into your eyes I'm helplessly aware 
 Dm7                      Cadd4                   Gsus4 
That the someone I've been searching for is right there 

C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the night 
C/G      Cadd4    Gsus4 
  Hold on to the memory 
C/G        Cadd4          Gsus4 
I wish that I could give you something more
