Verse 1:
FF A minorAm
Swept up in a rush // when your eye caught mine
A#A# C majorC
It all happened so quickly // yet it took a lifetime
Pre-Chorus 1:
A#A# A minorAm A#A# C majorC
I’ve been grasping at light but it slips through my fingers
A#A# A minorAm A#A# C majorC
All your goodness evades me and selfishness lingers
Chorus 1:
FF A minorAm
But everything I thought I knew
A#A# C majorC
Fades like a shadow flees from the rising sun...
Verse 2:
FF A minorAm
Forbidden love // you won’t let me be
A#A# C majorC
Though I’ve been a faithful servant // for the enemy
FF A minorAm
You captured my heart // like a prisoner of war
A#A# C majorC
Though I fought in the frontlines // against you before
Pre-Chorus 2:
A#A# A minorAm A#A# C majorC
You’re in endless pursuit, I’ve been choosing to roam

You won’t rest until my wandering heart is home
Chorus 2:
FF A minorAm
But everything I thought I knew
A#A# C majorC
Fades like a shadow flees from the rising sun

But there’s nothing I wouldn’t trade just to be with you
Bridge:
FF
I know it seems
A minorAm
Foolish to hang on the belief
A#A#
That someone as glorious as you
C majorC
Would care about someone like me
FF
And yet the impossibility
A minorAm
Is realized in this mystery
A#A#
That someone like you could love
C majorC
Someone like me
Pre-Chorus 3:
A minorAm C majorC A#A# C majorC
I’ve been grasping at love but you’re giving it freely

You have captured my heart, I’m at home when you hold me
Interlude:
A#A# C majorC
(You’re all I ever wanted but / I just didn’t know it yet
A#A# C majorC
You’ve won me over, you’ve / broken all my walls down
A#A# C majorC
You’re all I ever wanted but / I just didn’t know it yet
A#A# C majorC
You’ve won me over, my heart is yours.)
Chorus:
FF A minorAm
Everything that I thought I knew--
A#A# C majorC
I surrender it over, only to be with you
FF A minorAm
This traitor has never been more free
A#A# C majorC
‘cause there’s nothing you wouldn’t // trade just to be with me
A#A# C majorC
There’s nothing you wouldn’t // trade just to be with me
