G
The first time I turned around
Just to turn away
The sun was going down
Like a distant memory
A longing for you followed though
I forgot your name
The tide that laps against the shore's
carress on every grain
D D7 G
We all need a shelter from the storm
Ami D C
We're children in the afterlife just waiting to be born
C D
And I
G /maj7
need you more than then
Ami D C
Without directions can we make it home again
C D
And I
Bmi D G
Will lead you blind.
Ami
The way I feel is darkness in the midst of so much light
C D
And I
The second time I turned around
I couldn't turn away
The stars gather like angels
Falling through the rain
A longing for you followed though,
I forgot your face
I close my eyes and realize
I can't forget the taste
We all need...
