Lyrics

Where

are

you?

Why do you hide?

Where is that moon light trail that (Gm7)leads to your side?

Just like the (Em)Moon

ra ker (Am7)goes

in (Em)search

of his (Am7)dream of gold,

(Dm)I

search for (G7)love,

for (Dm)some

one to (G7)have and hold.

I’ve (C)seen

your (Fm)smile

in a (C)thou

sand (Fm)dreams.

(C)Felt

your (Fm)touch

and it (C)al

ways (Am7)seems

you (F)love

me.

(Dm6)You

(Dm)love

(C)me.
