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

[Am] [G]
[C] [G] [F] How long [C] have I been sleeping?
[Dm] How long have I [Am] been drifting [C] alone [F] through the night?
How long [C] have I been running for that [F] morning flight?
[C] Through the whispered promises and [F] the changing light
[C] Of the bed where we [G] both lie
Late [C] for the sky
