Let's not be the ones outside, looking at the world go by
Ab
Saw you standing all alone

Wasted time has gone for good, play no more, its understood

Come... to the twilight zone
Let me feel your secret hand, like a feather on the sand
Ab
Only made of gold

You can make me feel a king
Ab Bbm Ab Gb Ab Bbm
And surrender everything... a fire can't control...

Hold me in your arms again

Strangers down a lonely lane

We can still survive... driftwood on the stream of life
Db
Hold me in your arms again

Let me touch your velvet skin

No more lonely nights... on the way of no return
Play me the bolero

And the emotion in your lies

'Cause the wanting is too much...
