Capo I *
E
A
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,
F#m
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
D
yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,
A
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
F#m
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,
D
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
E A E
Hey, that's no way to say good bye.
A
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time,
F#m
walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
D
you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me,
A
it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea,
F#m
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,
D
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
E A E
Hey, that's no way to say good bye.
