Love,  ......
  B7B7          E MajorE
adrift ......
B7B7              A augmentedA           A/C#A/C#
floating by the open window
E MajorE       B7B7            E MajorE

   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

 in the darkness ...

  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.
