[D#m] _ [Fm] _ [C#] _ [D#m] _ [D#m] _ [C#] _ _
Only [F#] to fear [C#] I'd be here your [D#m] one mistake [C#] But my eyes filled [F#] with tears [D#m] because you
fell [G#] far away [C#] So I returned to [F#] our place
And [C] to my [A#m] [C#] surprise [F#] You were [Fm] much [C#] closer
[D#m] Than [C#] I'd dreamed of life
