[D] Just a song before I [E] leave, a few words to [A] believe in, a touch we'll both [G] remember in
time, like a warm [D] fire in December, they'll remind us who's [G] real, and it was just passing
[A] by, a small taste of what once [G] was, the sweet smell of sun-dried [D] springtime, and [G] I'll remember
the sunflowers on your [E] breast, and I'll [G] remember the halston that you'd wear the [E] best, [D]
and I'll
remember [E] your fatal touch, and [D] when it all becomes too much, I'll [A] pretend I don't care, I don't [G] care, I don't care [D] anymore.
Did he come to comfort you, when you were feeling [A] down, and was he there to listen?
I listened but then I
drowned, behind your silence [D] hid, [A] where nothing gets revealed, and maybe your eyes [D] can't fake, what you had no [G] longer
And I'll remember the sunflowers on your [D] breast, and I'll [G] remember the halston that you'd wear the [D] best, and I'll [G] remember your fatal touch, and [D] when it all becomes too much, I'll [A] pretend I don't care, I don't [G] care, I don't care anymore.
[A] Maybe sometimes on the distant lines, when [G] the words ring through you, then you [D] might see,
[A] maybe and then sometimes, when [G] you know it's safe and clear, [E] that you can think of [G] me out here

[G]
And I'll remember the sunflowers on your [A] breast, and [G] I'll remember the halston that you'd wear the [D] best, and [G] I'll remember your fatal touch, [D] and when it all [A] becomes too much, I'll [A] pretend I don't care, I don't [G] care, I don't care anymore.
[D] [A]

And just a song before I [G] leave, if you [D]
ask, do you [A] believe it, a touch will bother [E] and entertain, like a warm fire [D] in December.
