Only You
View chords used in this chart
Bm G A D
When the night is young but it makes you feel much older
Bm G D A
And you comatose each waking hour of life
Bm G A D
When the days go by but the darkness lingers longer
Bm G D A
And before you know it life is one long night
Bm G D A
But when I close my eyes, I see you stand before me
Bm G A D
And if you take my hand, I'll leave it all behind
Bm G D A
Because only you can set me free
Bm G A D
So hold me close just like the first time
Bm G A D
Flashing lights illuminate your halo
Bm G D A
And my pounding heartbeat thunders like a drum
Bm G A D
When we used to dance we've never cast a shadow
Bm G D A
Cause there was only you and me when we were young
Bm G D A
And in a sea of scars the first cut is the deepest
Bm G A D
No matter where you are, I'll always think of you
Bm G D A
Because only you can set me free
Bm G A D
So hold me close just like the first time
Bm G D A
And show me how it used to be
Bm G A D
Because only you can set me free
Bm G D A
Because only you can set me free
Bm G A D
So hold me close just like the first time
Bm G D A
And show me how it used to be
Bm G A D
Because only you can set me free
