Gm    Bb 
Fiction 
                  Eb 
When we're not together 
               Gm 
Mistaken for a vision 
Bb                     Eb 
Something of my own creation 
            Gm    Bb 
I wake up alone 
                       Eb 
With only daylight between us 
                            Gm        Bb 
Last night the world was beneath us, 
                     Eb 
Tonight comes, dear love 
               Gm     Bb 
Were we torn apart 
                 Eb 
By the break of day? 
                          Gm  Bb 
You're more than I can believe, 
                    Eb 
Would ever come my way

Mistaken for a vision 
Bb                     Eb 
Something of my own creation 
           Gm   Bb 
Come real love 
            Eb 
Why do I refuse you? 
                    Gm   Bb 
Cause if my fear's right 
          Eb 
I risk to lose you 
               Gm   Bb 
And if I just might 
          Eb 
Wake up alone 
              Gm    Bb Eb 
Bring on the night

Something of my own creation 
             Gm   Bb 
Any certainties 
             Eb 
How am I to tell? 
                          Gm 
I know your face all too well, 
         Bb       Eb 
Still I wake up alone
