[Dm] [Am] [G]
[F] By
[C] the words had [G] all been spoken, and somehow [F] the feeling still wasn't [C] right.
[Dm] And still we [Am] continued [G] on through [F] the night,
[C] tracing our steps from [G] the beginning [F] until
they vanished into the [C] air,
[Dm] trying to understand [Am] how our [G] lives had led [F] us there.
[C]
[F] Looking [Am] hard into your eyes, [G] there was nobody I'd ever [Em] known.
Such an empty [F] surprise [Am] [F] to feel [G] so alone.
[C] [G]
Now for [C] me some words [G] come easy, [D] but I know [F] that they don't mean that [C]
much,
[Dm] compared with [Am] the things that are [G] said when lovers [F] touch.
[F]
[C] You never knew [G] what I loved in you, I don't know what you loved in [C] me.
[Dm] Maybe the picture [Am] of somebody [G] you were hoping I [F] might be.
[C] [F] Awake again, [Am] I can't pretend that [G] I know [Em] I'm alone,
and close [F] to the
[Am] end of the [F] feeling we've [G]
[G] known.
[F] How long have I [C] been sleeping?
[Dm] How long have I [Am] been drifting [G] along through the [F] night?
How long have [C] I been dreaming I [D] could make it [C] right?
If I closed my eyes and [F] tried with all my might to [Em] be the one you need.

[Dm] How long [Am] have I been drifting along [F] through the night?
How long [C] have I been running for [D] that morning flight
[C] through the whispered promises and [F] the changing light
[C] of the bed where we [G] both lie, laid [C] for the sky?
