Lyrics

When I look in to (A)your (E)eyes,

it’s like watch ing the night

(E)sky

or a beau ti ful (A)sun (E)rise.

Oh, there’s so much they hold.

And just like them old

(E)stars,

I see that you’ve (A)come so (E)far

to be right where (A)you (E)are.

How old is your (Bsus4)soul?

Well, I won’t give (A)up on (E)us e ven if the (C#m7)skies get (B)rough.

I’m giv ing you (A)all my (E)love.

I’m still look ing up.

And when you’re need ing (A)your (E)space

to do some (A)nav i gat ing,

I’ll be here (A)pa tient ly (E)wait ing to see what you (Bsus4)find.

’Cause e ven the (A)stars, they (E)burn; some e ven (C#m7)fall to the earth.

We got a (A)lot to (E)learn.

And in the (D)end, you’re still my friend; at least we did in tend for us to work.

We did n’t break; we did n’t burn.

We had to learn how to bend with out the world cav ing in.

I had to learn what I got and what I’m not and who I (E)am.

I won’t give (A)up on (E)us e ven if the (C#m7)skies get (B)rough.

I’m giv ing you (A)all my (E)love.

I’m still look ing up.
