Lyrics

Ba by, when I met you there was peace un known.

I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb.

I was (F)soft in side,

there was some thing go ing on.

You do some thing to me that I can’t ex plain.

Hold me clos er and I feel no pain.

Ev ’ry (F)beat of my heart,

we got some thing go ing on.

Ten der love is (Fmaj7)blind.

It re quires a ded i ca tion.

All this love we feel needs no con ver sa tion.

We (C)ride it to geth er, ah, ah,

mak ing love with each oth er, ah, ah.

Is lands in the stream,

that is what (F)we are.

No one in (Dm)be tween.

How can we be wrong?

Sail a way (C)with me

to an oth (F)er world,

and we re (C)ly on each oth er, ah, ah.

From one lov er to an oth er, ah, (C)ah.

(Ab)I can’t live with out you if the love was gone.

Ev ’ry thing is noth ing if you got no one.

And you did (Db)walk in to night, slow ly los ing sight of the (Ab)real thing.

But that won’t hap pen to us, and we got no doubt.

Too deep in love, and we got no way out.

And the (Db)mes sage is clear: this could be the year for the (Ab)real thing.

No more will you (Dbmaj7)cry.

Ba by, I will hurt you nev er.

We (Dbm)start and end as one, in love for ev er.

We can (Ab)ride it to geth er, ah, ah,

mak ing love with each oth er, ah, ah.

Is lands in the stream, that is what (Db)we are.

No one in (Bbm)be tween.

How can we be wrong?

Sail a way (Ab)with me to an oth (Db)er world, and we re (Ab)ly on each oth er, ah, ah.

From one lov er to an oth er, ah, (Ab)ah.

(Db)Sail a (Ab)way.

Oh, come sail a way with me.

Is lands in the stream, that is what (Db)we are.

No one in (Bbm)be tween.

How can we be wrong?

Sail a way (Ab)with me to an oth (Db)er world, and we re (Ab)ly on each oth er, ah, ah.

From one lov er to an oth er, ah, (Ab)ah.

Is lands in the stream, that is what (Db)we are.

No one in (Bbm)be tween.

How can we be wrong?

Sail a way (Ab)with me to an oth (Db)er world, and we re (Ab)ly on each oth er, ah, ah.

From one lov er to an oth er, ah, (Ab)ah.
