And I couldn't hide how hard it was to live not knowing you

And I gently took my fingers and I brushed away your hair
    D            C       Em
The day began in silver, dawning on your brow
      C                    A           Bm         G        A     D
And I shook hands with the morning for letting me love you now

With a way of her own is taking me

              C                 Bb      C      F       G    A
Run off every time you feel the need to see me show we go together

The walks to where the sun is and the standing in the cold

Brown leaves in the autumn and always you to hold
        D                  C        Em
I could watch your face forever and speak my mind for years
C             A             Bm      G       A     D
Happy in your happiness and tearful in your tears

With a way of her own is taking me

Can't you see that I'm different, she's waking me
