Lyrics

A hun dred (Bm9)days have made me old er since the last time that I saw your pret ty face.

A thou sand (Bm9)lies have made me cold er and I don’t think I can look at this the same.

But all the miles that sep ar ate,

they dis ap pear now when I’m (G)dream in’ of your (A)face.

I’m here with out you, ba by,

but you’re still on my lone ly mind.

I think a bout you, ba by, (G)and I dream (A)a bout you all the time.

I’m here with out you, ba by,

but you’re still with me in my dreams.

And to night

(A)it’s on ly you and me,

oh.

The (Bm9)miles just keep roll in’ as the peo ple leave their way to say hel lo.

I’ve heard this (Bm9)life is o ver rat ed but I hope that it gets bet ter as we go,

oh yeah,

(A)yeah.

I’m here with out you, ba by,

but you’re still on my lone ly mind.

I think a bout you, ba by, (G)and I dream (A)a bout you all the time.

I’m here with out you, ba by,

but you’re still with me in my dreams.

And to night, girl, (A)it’s on ly you and me.

Ev ’ry thing I know

and an y where I go,

it gets hard but it won’t take a way my love.

And when the last one falls,

when it’s all said and done, it gets hard but it won’t take

a way

my love,

whoa.

Yeah,

oh yeah,

oh,

oh.
