Lyrics

I know you’ve heard the (E)sto ries,

but they all sound

too good to be true.

You’ve heard a bout a place called home,

but there does n’t seem to (D6/9)be one for you,

so (B)one more night you cry your self to (E)sleep

and (B)drift off to a (Dsus2)dis tant dream

(D6/9)where love (D)takes you in

and ev ’ry thing (A)chang es.

A (D6/9)mir a cle starts

with the (Esus)beat of a heart.

(D6/9)When love (D)takes you home

and says you be (A)long here,

the (D6/9)lone li ness ends

and a (Esus)new life be gins

(D6/9)when love (D)takes you in.

And some where while you’re (E)sleep ing,

some one else is dream ing, too,

count ing down the days un til

they hold you close and (D)say, “I love you.”

And (B)like the rain that falls in to the (E)sea, in a (Bsus)mo ment what has (B)been is lost in what will be.

(D69)When love takes you in,

ev ’ry thing (A)chang es.

A (D6/9)mir a cle starts

with the (Esus)beat of a heart,

and this (G6/9)love will nev er let you (Dmaj9)go.

There is (B7sus)noth (B7)ing that could (B9)ev er cause this (Dmaj9)love

to (E7sus)lose its hold.

When (D6/9)love

(D)takes you in,

ev ’ry thing (A)chang es.

A (D6/9)mir a cle starts

with the (A)beat of a heart,

when (D6/9)love takes you home

and (A)says you be (A)long here,

the (D6/9)lone li ness ends

and a (A)new life be gins.

(D6/9)When love takes you in,

it takes you in (F#m9)for good.

(Bm7)When love

takes you in.
