Tom: C#m
E Ab C#m E
I don't say I love, you quite enough I know
A F#m B
Sometimes I go for days, I'm ashamed to say
E Ab C#m E
The world moves so fast, and the words come soslow
A B E Ab
And I let those excuses get in my way
[Chorus]
Ab C#m B A
But while you sleep sometimes I lie awake and watch
E C#m A
you breath, In the silence that surrounds the dead
E C#m B
of night, Bear my soul that all the words sound
A E F#m A B
right, I pray the lord our hearts to keep, while
E
you sleep.
[Verse 2]
E Ab C#m E
Day's march through our lives like a sad parade
A F#m B
Our laughter and tears, our hopes and fears
E Ab C#m E
And I keep remembering things I forget to say
A B E
And perhaps someday, I let you know my dear...that
[Chorus]
Ab C#m B A
But while you sleep sometimes I lie awake and watch
E C#m A
you breath, In the silence that surrounds the dead
E C#m B
of night, Bear my soul that all the words sound
A E F#m A B
right, I pray the lord our hearts to keep, while
E
you sleep.
