Out side there is a war,
but here the night is (G7)still.
The jas mine buds have bloomed,
the way that jas mine (F7)will;
and I have giv en (Bb7)birth to a spec kle of (Eb)dust,
to a (Eb)spar kle of (Cm7)light, to a small hint of (G)life.
(C)Frail
as a (G)flow er in the (Am)morn ing
is this (G)ti ny work of (C)art.
When I (G)see his face be (Am)fore me,
this is (B)too much for one (Em)heart.
(C)Here,
like a (G)seed ling in a (Am)gar den,
is a (G)world a bout to (C)start.
How I (G)need you here to (Am)share it!
This is (G)too much for one (C)heart.
(Em)Yours,
half of (B7)all of this is (Em)yours;
and I (D)swear up on the (G7)moon,
(Cm)soon
you will (G)see
the best of you and (G)me
in the smile that is (F)shin ing
on the face of your (G)son.
All a (C)lone,
in my (G)arms I hold such (Am)beau ty!
I want (G)time to stop right (C)here,
make per (G)fec tion last for (Am)ev er,
in which (B)I could dis ap (E)pear,
dis (B)ap pear.
(Em)Yours,
half of (B7)all of this is (Em)yours,
and now I (D)feel you com ing (G7)near.
(Cm)Soon

This is (A)too much for one (D)heart.
