intro: Cmaj/G Fmaj/C
Cmaj/G Fmaj/C
I don't know quite what's happening
Cmaj/G Fmaj/C
and my eyes don't see too clear;
Bm7 Am
all I know is I need you here,
Dmaj Dm
if only to shield me from the mood of the world
Gm Dm
and hold me and say it doesn't matter....
Am Bm7 Esus4
but I'm like a child whose dreams are shattered,
Crowding round me: images of broken thought,
lines of my life now overgrown.
All I can feel is I'm so alone,
without even your bright eyes to reach into my mind
and say that in my life I've done right,
and I'm like a moonchild in the sunlight.
So cast your thoughts upon me, wherever you are,
that I may feel you close beside me
and hold your hand, for you to guide me
through all these catacombs which freeze me
with their touch;
unknowing, knowing so much, my mind cries out
and I'm like a child when the light's out
Cmaj/G Fmaj/C Cmaj/G
With a child's fear of the dark....
