C F C Em
I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Am F C G
Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
C F C Em
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
Am C F Em
You think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
Dm G
The someone you once loved so long ago so well
Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
Every moment of my life from now until I die
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
C
Is it written in the stars
Am
Are we paying for some crime
F
Is that all that we are good for
G
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day
Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
What it is to be in love and have that love returned
