Capo 1
---------
C G
Chasing after clouds I can't keep
F G
holding on to dreams in lost sleep
Dm7 G7 Am7 Dm7
as the ugly truth comes creeping up on me
I thought this was just beginning
when we kissed when I was dreaming
when I awoke, you were streaming free tv
you live behind a closed door
I wish that you'd come out more
often, and share the story of your
--
C
You invaded
Em
sleep once sacred
F
now saturated
Dm G
with the in-between
C
some combination
Em
of invitation
F
and accusation
Dm G
left my lips unseen
--
C Em
and when I woke I woke to see
Dm7 G G7
my lover lying next to me
Am7 Em7
and all my dream between us spilt
F G
coloured with passion and coloured with guilt
C Em
but I remember, even now,
Dm7 G G7
remember still exactly how
Am7 Em7
you sat across from me and said
F G
the fairytales that ran through your head
--
C G
you are the god I can't see
F G
I pray but you can't hear me
Dm7 G7 Am7 Dm7
I say I love you dearly and it's true
Daylight, I see your lips,
Adamant, they still insist
they've never known my kisses, is this true?
