Lyrics

Re mem ber in’ the days

when our (Dm9)love be gan.

(Em9)Think in’ of a mil lion ways

to es (Dm9)cape and be with you.

But re (Em9)al i ty

was n’t just (Dm9)you and I.

It was (Em9)long drawn out days and lone ly nights.

(Em9)Dream in’ ’bout you, I keep (Dm9)dream in’ ’bout you and I’m (Em9)dream in’ ’bout when you would say, “Let me take you, take you, take you to an (Dm9)oth er place

where (Em9)noth in’ ev er seems to mat ter.

It’s just (Dm9)you and me.

(Em9)We can take flight like a (Dm9)thief in the night, stol en (Em9)mo ments with (Dm9)you, ooh.”

But (Em9)des ti ny

did n’t have such a (Dm9)sim ple plan.

(Em9)I was just a girl

and you a young man.

How could (Em9)age de fine

some thin’ (Dm9)so di vine?

Can this (Em9)e ven be real or just ex ist in my mind?

(Em9)Dream in’ ’bout you, I keep (Dm9)dream in’ ’bout you and I’m (Em9)dream in’ and wait in’ for the day

when no one and noth ing else takes (Bm7)up our time.

(Em9)Fi nal ly you’re on ly (Am9)mine

each and ev ’ry day and I (Bm7)walk with you.

(Em9)right by my (Am9)side.

But in stead we have to hide, sneak a (Bm7)round and lie

just to (Em9)spend time a (Am9)lone.

If (Bm7)lov ing you’s a crime I’d (Cmaj7)rath er do the time and (B7)leave the world be (B)hind.

“Let me take you, take you, take you to an (Dm9)oth er place

where (Em9)noth in’ ev er seems to mat ter.

It’s just (Dm9)you and me.

(Em9)We can take flight like a (Dm9)thief in the night, stol en (Em9)mo ments with (Dm9)you, ooh.”

(Em9)Let’s get a way.

Let’s get a way,

oh.

(Em9)We can get a way.

We can get a way,

oh.

(Em9)Let’s get a way.

Let’s get a way,

oh.

(Em9)We can get a way.

We can get a way,

oh.
