D
In the coldest time of year
Bm
darkness all around my heart

I was alone but didn't fear

to wander in the light of stars

In the bright and silent night
Bm
winds would knock and disappear

Still I felt the feeling near
G A
like the first time you were ever here

You're so far away, so far away

you left me, you told me you would stay

You never said goodbye

and I'll keep asking why
A
I keep on asking how
Bm A
oh come unto me now
Verse 2:
D
I have breathed the morning air
Bm
I have heard the four winds blow

I was weary but prepared

to follow down this lonely road
D
In the room were lovers sleep
Bm
winds would knock and disappear
F#m
Still I felt the music near
G A
like the first time we were ever here

You're so far away, so far away

you left me, you told me you would stay

oh come inside me now

I keep on wondering how

oh come inside me now
