[Cm]
[G] [Fm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm]
[Fm] [Ab] Just [Bb]
[Cm] when I believed I [Bb] couldn't ever want for more,
[Cm] this ever-changing world pushes
me [Bb] through another door.
I [Eb]
saw [Ab] you smile, [Eb] and my mind could not [Bb] erase the beauty of your face.
[Fm] Just [Eb] for a [Ab] while, [Bb] won't you let me [Cm] shelter you?
[Eb] Oh, hold [Ab] on [Eb] to the nights, [Bb] hold [Eb] on to the memories.
[D] [Eb] I wish that I could give you something [Bb] more, that I could [Cm] be yours.
How [Fm] [Ab]
[Bb] [Cm] do we explain something [Eb] that took us [Bb] by surprise?
[Cm] Promises in vain, love [Eb] that is real but in [Bb] disguise.
[Fm] What [Eb] happens [Ab] now?
Do [Eb] we break [Bb] another rule?
Let our lovers bleed and fall?
[Fm] I don't [Eb] know how to [Bb] stop [Cm] this way.
[Bb] [Eb] Hold on to the nights, [Bb] [Eb] hold on to the memories.
[Eb] If only I [Ab] could give [Eb] you more.
[Bb]
Well, I think that I've been true to [F] everybody [C] else but me.
[Fm] And the way I feel about you [Eb] makes my heart long [Bb] to be free.
[Dm] Every time I look into your [C] eyes, I'm helplessly aware
that [Fm] there's someone I've been [Ab] searching for in [G] my head.
[Am] [F] [C]
[Dm] [C] [Bb] [C] [F]
[Bb] Hold [C] [F]
