I could never hear you when you told me that you loved me,
G C D
I could never hear you when you called my name,
Bm Em Am D
I could only listen to the beat of my own heart,
C G D
I could never hear you at all,
G C D
I could never see it when you needed some affection,
G C D
And I could never see it when you lost your way,
Bm Em Am D
And I could not see you leaving me until it was too late,
C G D
I could never see it at all,
Bb F C Dm
Oh, day after day I was lost in my own world,
Bb F C
Did you call me to be here again,
Cm Ab Bb Cm
And night after night did you dream of a lover
Ab D
Who would come here and take you away?
G C D
It is never easy to give up and just surrender,
G C D
But that is now exactly what I have to do,
Bm Em Am D
You were always there beside me, but I hardly knew it,
C G D
So heres a promise to you,
Bb F C Dm
Oh, day after day I will be there in your world,
Bb F C
I want you to come back again,
Cm Ab Bb Cm
And night after night I will give you my love
Ab D
And I will tenderly take you away,
G C D
G C D
Bm Em Am D
And I will always listen to things that need saying,
Bm Em Am D
And I will always hear you, when you want me,
Bm Em Am D
We had something so beautiful but I did not see it,
C G D G C
Till all the beauty had gone, and I need you,
D G C D G
Day after day, day after day.
