(CHORUS)
GI D/F#couldn't tell you enough that I'm EmsorryC
Goh D/F#you couldn't tell me enough that you Emloved meC
she's bringing the Gmoon and stars to D/F#me, damn permanent EmreverieC
even though this Glife, this love is D/F#brief, I've got some people who Emcarry meC
it was near Glove soon as we knew each other Emproperly
living about Chalf right till the certain person got to me
nothing is Gsecret everything's sacred how it Emoughta be
under the Cmoonlight on a clear night on rooftops is where I wanna be
someGtimes I'm like a child its something I Emcant release
dreams of a Ccoming home, sweet home I'm telling you home's so sweet
said you Greminded me of the summertime asEmsuming that
in a Cfull moon I'm the only one she's smiling at
now wouldn't you Glet me know if you were thinking Emless of me
that's what she Casked me, what was promised what we both agreed
truthfully if you Gever go you'd drop me straight to Emhell the 7th circles
and I was Ctalking with you earlier we were open and vulnerable
it was wonderfulEm I
C FP Em
I used to dream that you would talk to me
I used to dream that you would Ctalk to me
(CHORUS)
you know that Gfeeling when you think your heart is D/F#gonna come right out through your Emshirt C
it did it Gcouple times a year but I've been D/F#getting it more often with Emher C
when I'm Gface to face with death ill grab his D/F#throat and ask him how does it Emhurt C
in those Ggolden moments growing old too D/F#quickly was he thinking of Emher C
and she's bringing theG moon and stars to D/F#me, damn permanent Emreverie C
even though this Glife, this love is D/F#brief, I've got some people who Emcarry me C
