[G] [E]
[Em]
[D] [C] [E] I love the time [G] and in between [D]
That [Em] come [C] inside [Em] me
In the space [G] where I can breathe [E]
I [D] believe [Em] [F#] there is [Em] a distance
I [D] have wandered To touch upon [Em] the years
[C] I'm [Em]
reaching [G] [D] out and reaching [C] in [G]
Holding [D] out, [G]
[C] holding in
[G] [Am]
I [Gm] [D] believe
[Em] this is [D] heaven to [Am]
no [D] one else but me
[Em] And I'll defend it [Am] long as I [D] can be [Em]
Left here [D] to [Em] linger in [Am]
silence
If I [D]
choose to, [G] would you [Am]
try to [D]
understand?
[G] [D] [Em]
Moonslough is [G] passing time [D]
Passing through [Em] like liquid
[G] I'm drunk in my [D]
desire [G] [Em]
I love the way you smile at me
[D] I love the way [C] your hands reach [Em] out and hold [G] me [D] near
I [C] [G]
believe, [D] I [C]
[D] [Am]
[D] believe [G]
this is heaven to [Am] no one [D] else but [Em] me
And I'll defend it long [Am] as I [D] can be [Em]
Left here to linger in [Am]
silence
If I [D]
choose to, would you [Am]
try to [D] understand?
[Em]
[G] A quiet child [D]
waits to tell you [C] she can't [Em] break free
A moment [G] clings like [D]
desperation
[C] Mother, [Em]
can't [G] you see I've got [D] to live my life the [C] way I feel
[Em] It's right [G] for [D] me
It might not [C] be right for you, [G] but it's right [D] for [C]
me
I [Am]
[D] [Em] believe this is heaven to [Am]
no one [D] else but [Em] me
And I'll defend it long [Am] as I [D] can be [Em]
Left here to linger in [Am]
silence
If I [D] choose to, would you [Am] try to [D] understand?
[Am]
Allow a life to
[D] linger here [G] in [Am]
silence
If I [D]
choose to, [G] would you [Am]
[Em] understand?
