[Bb]
[F]
[Bb] [Eb] I did [Gm] all my best to smile.
Until your singing [F] eyes and fingers [Eb] drew me out of my shell.
[Gm] I opened your eyes and you [Ab] sighed.
[Eb] Said to [Gm] me, said to [Bb] me, let me hold you.
[Gm] Here I am, here [F] I am, waiting to [Eb] hold you.
[Bb]
Did I dream [F]
you dreamed about me?
[Eb] Were you [Cm] [Gm] here when I was far off?
Now my foolish [F] boat is leaning, [Eb] broken [Gm] afloat.
I am lost, [Bb]
for you say, touch [Cm] me not,
[Gm] touch me not, come back tomorrow.
Oh my heart, [C] oh my [F] heart, [Cm] shies from the song.
[Gm]
Well I'm as puzzled [F] as a newborn [Cm] child.
[Gm]
I'm as riddled as the tide.
Should I [Dm] stand mid the [Eb] breakers?
Or should I lie with [Gm] death my bride?
[Bb] Hear me say, swear to [Fm]
me, [Gm] swear to me, let me hold you.
[Bb] [Gm] Here I am, here I [Fm] am, waiting [Cm] to [Eb] hold [Bb] you.
