Lyrics

Did I dis ap point you,

or let you down?

Should I be feel ing guil ty, or let the (F)jud ges (C)frown?

’Cause I saw the end be (Dm7)fore we’d be gun, yes I (Am)saw you were blind ed and I (Bb)knew I had won.

So I took what’s mine by e (Dm)ter nal right,

took your soul out in to the night.

It may be o ver but it (Dm7)won’t stop there, I am (Am)here for you if you’d (Bb)on ly care.

You (F)touched my heart, you touched my soul, I’ve (Dm)changed my life and all my goals.

And (Bb)love is blind, and that I knew when my heart was (F)blind ed by you.

I’ve (F)kissed your lips and held your head, we’ve (Dm)shared your dreams and shared your bed, I (Am)know you well, I know your smell, I’ve been ad (F)dict ed to you.

Good bye my lov er,

good bye my friend.

You have been the one,

you have been the one (C)for me.

Good bye my lov er,

good bye my friend.

You have been the one,

you have been the one (C)for me.

I am a dream er,

but when I wake,

you can’t break my spir it, it’s my (F)dreams you (C)take.

And as you move on,

re mem ber me,

re mem ber us and all we used to (F)be.

(C)I’ve

And I still

(C)hold your hand in mine,

in mine when I’m a sleep.

And I will

(Dm7)bare my soul in time,

when I’m (Bb)kneel ing at your (F)feet.

Good bye my lov er,

good bye my friend.

You have been the one,

you have (F)been the one (C)for me.

Good bye my lov er,

good bye my friend.

You have been the one,

you have been the one (C)for me.

I’m so hol low ba by, I’m so hol low.

I’m so, I’m so, I’m so (F)hol low.

I’m so hol low ba by, I’m so hol low.

I’m so, I’m so, I’m so (F)hol low.
