Each time I (Dm9)see a crowd

just like a fool I
stop and (Em11)stare.
It’s real ly (Bb)not
the prop er (Am9)thing to do,
but may be you’ll be (Gm9)there.
I go (Dm9)out walk ing af ter (Gm9)mid night
’long the lone ly

it’s not the (Eb7)time or place
to look
for (D13)you,
but (C7)may be you’ll (Fmaj9)be there.
You said your arms
would al ways (Am9)hold me,

Now af (Am7)ter
all those things
you (Gm9)told me,
how could it end

Some day if (Dm9)all my prayers are (Gm9)ans wered,
I’ll hear a foot step

The anx ious (Bbm6)heart,
