Lyrics

Like the sound of si lence call ing, I hear your voice but I and sud den ly I’m (D)fall ing,

(Em)And Like the ech o of our souls are meet ing, you say those words, I swear my heart stops beat ing.

(D)fly.

For I won der what (A)it means.

What could it (C)be

that (D)comes o ver (G)me?

At times I can’t (C6)move.

At times I can (C)hard (D6)ly (C)breathe.

(G)When you say you love me, the (D)world goes still, so still in side.

And (G)when you say you love me, for a (D)mo ment, there’s no one else a (C)live.

You’re the one I’ve al ways thought of, I don’t know how, but I feel shel tered in I’m (D)your love,

you’re where I be (A)long.

(Em)And when you touch me, if I close my eyes, ing, you there are times I swear I feel like I can (D)fly.

For a mo der ment (A)in time,

some where be (C)tween

the (D)heav ens and (G)earth, I’m fro zen in (C6)time,

At oh, when you (C)say (D6)those (C)words.

(G)When you say you love me, the (D)world goes still, so still in side.

And (G)when you say you love me, for a (D)mo ment, there’s no one else a (C)live.

(D)mo ment, there’s no one else a (G)live.

And this jour ney that we’re (Cmaj7)on,

how far we’ve (G)come and I

cel e (D)brate ev ’ry (Ebdim)mo

(Em)ment.

And when you say you (C6)love me,

that’s (G)all you have to say,

I’ll (Ebdim7)al ways feel

this (Em)way.

(Bb)When you say you love me, the (F)world goes still, so still in side.

And (Bb)when you say you love me, in that (F)mo ment I know why I’m a (Bb)live.

(Bb)When you say you love me.

(Bb)When you say you love me,

(F)do you know how I love (Bb)you?
