A G
I felt empty and confused
C Em
I sat there with your clothes near me
A G
I reached up and grabbed a lamplight
C
Which fell and broke
Chorus 1
Well the what a day (???)
A G
I stared through empty eyes
C
Of lavender moon and I
Em
Far beyond your tears now
A G C
Still outside in the mist, drenched to the bone
alt Em
And you sang
Chorus 1
Everything’s all right
Lick
Chorus 2
A G
We’d walked through summer fields
C alt Em Chorus 1
Live the life of sin (???), cry on hard walls together, we did everything
A G
Well at night we talked and talked
C Em
Questioned what the future embraced
A G
Hugging perfect shapes all day
Chorus 1
We’d lie and sleep in
Lick
Chorus 2
A
But now you’ve left and gone
G C Em
And all I have are memories of you
A G
They return to me when I’m asleep
C
When dreams
alt Em
What I want to say was true (???)
