[(intro) ]Em Bm D A (2x) Em
Bm
Strange how summer blossoms
D A
blew away so late this year
Em Bm D
falling from above, soft as snow
A Em
all around you
Bm
The days, I´d like to bring back
A D
side by side with you
Em Bm
and peer through that old black window
D A
and see red-blue skies so near, but
C
say the word
Em
and I´ll be ready to make a sacrifice
C Am
stay - don´t turn around
Em Bm D A
there´s only one reason
Em Bm
all my life I wished I was here
D A
looking for a chance to cry out
Em Bm D
all the pain that turned me into stone
Am C
and thoughts that haunt me day by day
Em
the word is "now"
I´m ready to make my sacrifice
C Em
pray - imagine all the things
that I never talk about
C Am
stay - don´t turn around
you´re the only one
Bm A D
won´t you save me, take me away
G F#
there´s no more reason to hide
Bm A D
try to make a stand
G F#
it´s not only tears in my eyes
F C Am Dm
somewhere I´m all alone... whithout you
"flowers of light descend
as the twilight strangles the sky
may I, in this vast world
ever find another soul
to contamplate my silence, forever..."
won´t you save me, take me away
I´ve felt so lost as I´ve tried
hold me, help me stand
don´t mind the tears in my eyes
someday we´ll pass away
is there a time to go by?
take a breath and smile
fortune is to be alive
