Call you up in the middle of the night
[Em] Like a firefly without a light
[Am] You were like a slow torch burning
[G] I was the key that could use a little turning
[C] So tight that I couldn't even sleep
[G] So many [Em] secrets I could keep
[A] Promised myself I would be
[G] One more promise that I couldn't keep
[F] Seems no one can [G] help me now
I've [C] been too deep, there's [Am] no way out

[G] Runway on a one-way track
[A] Seems like I should [Am] be getting [G] somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[C] Can you help me remember how to smile
[G] Make it all somehow worthwhile

Life's mystery seems so faded

I know what no one else knows
