F#m E A
a thousand eyes looking at me
F#m E A
but yours is the look that goes right through me and i
F#m E A
cannot hide from your stare
F#m E A
should i let you in - do i dare
F#m E A
some other hands have tried before
F#m E A
but yours is the touch that makes me want more
F#m E A
cannot hide the urgency
F#m E A
to have you lying here with me because
Chorus
A E D9
suddenly in my life
A E D9
there's something that's got me mystified and i
A E D9 A E D9
cannot fight it but i can try to keep the wonder of it alive
a thousand words have tried to say
but yours are the ones that'll never fade away
and i cannot hide from their sound
i am mesmerized spinning round and round and
some other hearts have tried to steal mine
yours is the one that i now hold dear
i'll do what it takes to keep you here
i'm a selfish fool but i have no fear
Chorus
Mandolin-Solo: (those underlined play with mandolin-effect)

a thousand times i've tried to stay alone by pushing you away
time after time and tear after tear
i find myself back her with you
a thousand visions have come to me
all promising serenity
as i struggle to find the source of this peace
i always end up with your kiss
2x Chorus
Solo ad lib.
Lyrics for:
as they were being said i wished those words were
dead they grow and grow and grow in our heads
they linger, linger and haunt us days on end
it was all in a moment of anger these daggers that i threw
they're still deeply embedded into you
i swear i fear there's nothing i can do
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong
i can see it in your eyes in the way you look at me
mistrust has now replaced intimacy
i feel you drifting drifting far away from me
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong
i swear, i will fight this
i vow not to lose
i'll be damned if this destroys us
i'll be damned if i lose you
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
stay a while young is the night
give me a chance to set things right
don't you throw away those years of love
over one night when the love went wrong
over one night when the love went wrong
