C Am F G
[Verse 1]
C Am F G
Here, in the dark, where our sorrows lay sleeping
C Am F G
Here, where the night holds the dawn in its keeping
C Am F G
And time carries on, on a song, at its fancy
C Am F G
Resigned to reclaim all it granted
[Verse 2]
C Am F G
For life, in itself, finds a way of unfolding
C Am F G
And love, on a shelf, isn't much to be holding
C Am F G C
But I walked away from the heart that you held in your hand
Am F G C
Walked away without knowing
[Verse 3]
C Am F G
And so, it's been told, over seasons forgone,
C Am F G
That the night's always darkest just before the dawn
C Am F G C
My dear, though it seems, that the simplest things are the hardest to see
[Bridge]
Fm C
The tears will come and go
Fm C
And hearts, they change, I know
Fm C F G
But if you love me, then I won't let you go
[Verse 4]
C Am F G
Here, in the dark, where our sorrows lay sleeping
C Am F G
Here, where the night holds the dawn in its keeping
C Am F G C
I walked away from the heart that you held in your hand
Am F G C
Like a child, walked away from the love that you held in your hand
