Verse 1:
G#m C#m A B
In good old times, remember my friend
E A C#m E D#/E
Moon was so bright and so close to us, sometimes
G#m C#m A B
We were still blind and deaf, what a bliss?

"Can we ever have what we had then?
F#m C#m
Friendship unbreakable
B E
Love means nothing to me
A F#m Bsus4

All those moments with you

If I had you beside me"
Verse 2:

Nothing is quite as cruel as a child
E A C#m E D#/E B(Hit once, let ring)
Sometimes we break the unbreakable, sometimes?

"And we'll never have what we had then

Love means nothing to me
A F#m Bsus4
Without blinking an eye

I'd... fade, if so needed,

If I had you beside me now"

G#5-A#5-B5 A E F#
I was un-able to cope with what you said

Fee-lings I had were but sham and a lie?
