E MajorE  B7B7      E MajorE
Love, ......
 B7B7     E MajorE
adrift ......
B7B7       A augmentedA      A/C#A/C#
floating by the open window
E MajorE    B7B7      E MajorE
oh, the sentiment ......
  B7B7         E MajorE
reflections.......
     B7B7
what can enter......
     A augmentedA        A/C#A/C#
when our hearts .....
F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
Here ......  appear

   E MajorE   A augmentedA    BB
how sacred love can be


E MajorE    B7B7        E MajorE
Shared, ..........
   B7B7       E MajorE
.................................
   B7B7    A augmentedA      A/C#A/C#
............. cultivated


E MajorE  E/G# A augmentedA        E MajorE
Our love  ...... scared thing
     E/G#   A augmentedA
..................................
E MajorE    E/G#    A augmentedA
 in the darkness ...
E MajorE   E/G#   A augmentedA        E MajorE
 and still so strong ............
  E/G# A augmentedA        E MajorE
Our love  ....... infinite thing
     E/G#    A augmentedA     E MajorE
like the sun’s last ray on the sea
    E/G# A augmentedA
 as it sets low .....
BB             A augmentedA
and the moon rises.

E MajorE  B7B7  E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE  B7B7  E MajorE B7B7
