Lyrics

(D)Here I am, wait ing, I’ll have to leave soon.

(D)Why am I

(Dsus2)hold ing on?

We knew this day would come, we knew it all a long.

(D)How did it

(Dsus2)come so fast?

This is our

but it’s late

and I’m try ing not to sleep.

’Cause I know

when I wake

I will have to slip a way.

And when the day light comes I’ll have (Bm)to go, but to night I’m gon na hold you so close.

’Cause in the day light we’ll be on (Bm)our own, but to night I need to hold you so close.

Oh.

Here I am star ing at your per fec tion (D)in my arms,

so (Dsus2)beau ti ful.

The sky is get ting light, the stars are burn ing out.

(D)Some bod y

(Dsus2)slow it down.

This is way

too hard,

’cause I know

when the sun comes up I will leave.

This is my

last glance

that will soon be mem o ry.

And when the day I nev er want ed to stop be cause I don’t want to start all o ver, start all o ver.

I was a fraid of the dark, but now it’s all that I want, all that I want, all that I want.

And when the day light comes I’ll have (Bm)to go, but to night I’m gon na hold you so close.

’Cause in the day light we’ll be on (Bm)our own, but to night I need to hold you so close.

And when the day light comes I’ll have (Bm)to go, but to night I’m gon na hold you so close.

’Cause in the day light we’ll be on (Bm)our own, but to night I need to hold you so close.

And when the day close.
