If you _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
[F#] think of me, _ [C#] _ _ if you miss me [C] _ once in [F#] a while, _ _ [C#] _ _ _ [Fm]
then I'll _ [F] return _ [G#] to you.
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ I'll _ [A#m] return _ [F#] and fill that [G#] _ space [C#] in your heart.
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _

_ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ you _
[Fm] dream _ _ [F#] of me [C#] _ _ _ _ like I [C] _ _ dream [F#] of you, _
[G#] _ _ _ [F] in a place that's warm [G#] and dark, _
_ _ _ [F] in a [G#] place where [A#m] _ I [F#] can feel [G#] the beating of [C#] your heart. _
[G#] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ [Cm] [A#m] Remembering _ your [F#] _ touch, [G#] your kiss, [C#] your _ [G#] warm [A#m] _ embrace, [F#] I'll find my [G#] way _

[F#] have desired _ [C#] to _ _
[F] see _ your face, [G#] your smile, _ _ _ _ [F] to [G#] be [A#m] with you _
[F#] wherever _ _ [G#] _ _ _
[C#] you are.

_ _ [F#] Please say [G#] you'll be waiting [C#] _ _ _
together [G#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ [G#] _ _ [A#m] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ again.
_ [G#] _ _ _
[F] It would feel [G#] so good [A#m] to be _ [F#] in your arms.
_ [G#] _ _ _
[A] We're on [G#] our [A#m] journeys and you can [F#] make a promise _ [G#] _ if [C#] it's one [G#] that you [A#m] can keep.
_ [F#]
I vow to come [G#] for you _ [F#] if [C#] you wait for _ me [Fm] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
and say _ [A#m] you'll hold _

_ _ _ _ [C#] your heart. _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
A [G#] place for me [C#] in your heart. _
