Lyrics

If (Bm)you were the o cean and (Bm7)I was the sun,

if the (Bm)day made me (Bm)heav y and (Bm7)grav i ty (G#)won, if (Bm)I was the red

and (D)you were the (G#)blue,

(G)I could just (F#7)fade in to (Bm)you.

If (Bm)you were a win dow, if (D)I was the rain,

I’d (Bm)pour my self (Bb)out night and (D)wash off the pane.

Till I’d the (Bm)fall like the tears so your (D)light could shine (G#)through.

(G)Then I’d just (F#7)fade in to (Bm)you.

In your heart, (Bm)in your head, in your (Gmaj7)arms, in your bed, (F#7)un der your skin, till there’s no (Bm)way to know where you (Gmaj7)end and (F#7)where I be (Bm)gin.

If (Bm)I was a shad ow and (D)you were a street,

a (Bm)cob ble stone (Bb)mid night is (D)where we’d first meet.

Till I’d the (Bm)lights flick ered out and we’d (D)dance with the (G#)moon,

(G)Then I’d just (F#7)fade in to (Bm)you.

In your heart, (Bm)in your head, in your (Gmaj7)arms, in your bed, (F#7)un der your skin, till there’s no (Bm)way to know where you (Gmaj7)end and (F#7)where I be (Bm)gin.

If (Bm)gin.

I wan na melt (A)in, I wan na soak (G)through, I on ly wan na (F#7)move when you move.

I wan na breathe when you breathe, then I wan na (F#7)fade in to (Bm)you.

was just (Bb)ash es and (D)you were the ground,

and (Bm)un der your (Bb)wil low (D)they laid me down,

(Bm)There’ll be no (Bb)trace that (D)one was once (G#)two

(G)af ter I fade in to (Bm)you.

(Bm)Ooh,

(Bb)ooh,

(D)ooh.

(Bm)Ooh,

(D)ooh.

(G)Then I just fade in to (Bm)you.

Ooh, (Bb)ooh,

(G)Then I just fade in to (Bm)you.

Ooh, (Bb)ooh.

(G)Then I just fade in to (Bm)you.

(G)Then I just fade in to (Bm)you.
