C G
Every day feels all the same
Dm Am G
9 to 5 gets so mundane
C G F
But something breaks with just one glimpse of you
C G
I would stare so long awhile
Dm Am G
Trying to tell you with my eyes
C G F
I didn't say a thing I thought you knew
G
I wish I never did assume, cos
[Refrão] C G
I was gonna tell you today
Am F
I even wrote the words I would say
C G Am G F
I finally found the courage but now it's too far
G C G
It took me all this time to reveal
Am F
What everything about you does to me
G Am G F
So tell my why did I keep a cover on my heart
[Refrão]C G
Spent all night trying to explore just
Dm Am G
How I'd tell you I adore ya
C G F
And how I'm moved by every word you say
C G
But today there's an empty space
Dm Am G
I've found you gone without a trace
C G F
I wish that I coulda told you yesterday
G
Maybe then you would've stayed
Chorus
Dm Am G
It feels like my point of existence
Dm Am G
Has vanished with you in the distance
Dm Am G F
Whatever it takes I'll persist till I see your face again
