[G] [Em] [G]
[D] [G]
As the morning light stretched in [Em] across my bed, [G] I thought of you
Remembering your laughing eyes [Em] and always said [G] I love [C] you, [G]
too
As [Em] all my thoughts of you pass [C] for my face [G] a thousand times
The [Em]
way you erase my heart I [C] cannot see at all [G] in mine
How the short time together [Em] lasts so long
[G] [C] Makes me strong
[G] These two weeks came and went and you [Em] and I were for [G] a [C] living on
[G] Hmm
But it [Em] seems our love is destined [C] to be caught [G] in a vanet
But the [Em] love we held so brief I'd [C] chance again
[G] without regret
Yeah, [Em] [G]
standing by [D] the road has [Em] been my song [G] before
much [C] too [Em] long
[G] Mm-hmm
And now somehow [D] I'm forced to see [Em] me there once [G] more [C] that's the [G] song
But my [Em] waking thoughts of you are but [C] extensions [G] of the dream
[D] [Em]
Without you here beside me.
I'll [C] never know
all [G] that we need
[C] [G]
[D] [Em] [G] [C]
[G] There's a morning light stretched in across [Em] my bed [G] I thought of you
Remembering [D] your laughing [Em] eyes and always [G] said I [C] love you, [G] too
There's [Em] all my thoughts of you pass for [C] my face a [G] thousand times
[Em] The way you erase my heart I cannot [C] see at all [G] in mine
