[Bm] This is just to say [D] hello, and to [A] let you know, I think of you [Em] from time to time.
[Bm] I know I never really [D] knew you, but somehow I [A] miss you, and wish that you'd [Em] stayed in my life.
[G] Making contact [D] gets harder, as the silence [A] grows longer, and isn't it only [Bm] me,
[G] who'd like us to see each [D] other?
How I would hate to be a [A] bother, the way we left it was [Bm] new play.
[D] [G] I'm under no [Bm] illusion,
[D] as [G] to what I [Bm] meant to you,
[G] but you made an [D] impression.
[G] Sometimes I still feel [Bm] the bruise,
[D] [G] sometimes I still feel the [Bm] bruise.

[Em]
[Bm] Now and then I'll [D] stumble on, what I've misplaced but never [A] lost, an ache I first [Em] felt long ago.
[Bm] Though you've appeared [D] and disappeared, throughout these [A] past few years, I'd be surprised [Em] if you now should.
[G]
Making contact [D] gets harder, as the silence [A] grows longer, and why would you think [Bm] of me,
[G] when you were not the one [D] in love?
When you were not [A] the dreamer, when you were [Bm] just a dream,
[D] I'm [G]
under no [Bm] illusion,
[D] as to [G] what I meant [Bm] to you,
[G] but you made an [D] impression.
[G] Sometimes I still feel [Bm] the bruise,
[D] sometimes [G] I still feel [Bm] the bruise.
