Thinking back, it seems that I can lie beside you like I never truly did
FGAm
In afterglow - no afterwords at all.
AmF/AAmF/AAmG
Only writing love songs when it's gone and dead
FDm/AFDm/AFEm
only paying words out, strings of half-forgotten sentiment.

I mean...

I never really quite could say the way it was.
AmF
The first time that we met I thought 'I bet that she's the one"
Esus4E7E
but I was talking to myself than, as always.
AmF
As time went by our steps entwined, unwritten lines grew taut, and I
Esus4E7E
tried to find a way to make it all safe.
AmG
Into the play - what a production!
FE
Into the days and ever more suction
AmG
You hold me close, hold me farther
FE
away from yourself - I make me a martyr,
AmGFE
for pain and love go hand in hand...
AmF
And hand in hand go you and my friend, you are his and I am yours
Esus4E7E
and I just cannot evade you.
AmF
My days are dream, my nights unseemly, stolen moments all I live for,
Esus4E7E
but theft is no way to persuade you
AmG
to come with me, leave him behind you,
FE
my hurtful eyes try to remind you,
AmG
it's all I can do to keep on screaming
FE
'I love you, I love you!' - I wish I were dreaming,
EmDCB
but the steps we take all leave footprints.
DG/DDG/DDDG/DDG/DDD
Sooner or later the whole thing will be blown
AD/AAD/AAAD/AAD/AAA
You will leave him or I'll be left here, alone.
DG/DDG/DDDG/DDG/D
Either way someone loses someone
GC/DGC/GGGC/GGGGA
I don't mind that, I just would quite like to know who we love the most,
A
but I guess that's ourselves.
AmF
The days are strange, at night we're stangers, lie in bed and lie inside
Esus4E7E
our heads, we come no closer than as dancers.
AmF
Your eyes are change, your presence danger, won't look me in the eye and
Esus4E7E
yet you kiss, and make up the answer
AmG
to all the questions that lie unanswered, unreasoned,
FE
death in the sky, death in the season,
AmG
if you leave me now, it might nearly kill me
F
Remember me?
E
Remember we three?
EmDCB
It all seemed so important at the time
EmDCB
We came so close to wrecking all our lives
EmDCB
And now it's all just song lines...
EmDCB
Time heals,
EmDCB
Time heals...
EmDCB
oh, but I still bear the weals...
