[Verse]
D/F# G C Csus2
I'll wait 'til your eyes go to sleep
D/F# G C Csus2
And don't pray that mine fall down, down
D/F# G C Csus2
Watch your skin steal the warmth out of me
D/F# G C Csus2
'Til I shiver
D/F# G C Csus2
And the hours roll by like the sea
D/F# G C Csus2
But I wish we had more, more
D/F# G C Csus2
Watch your chest swell and sink as you breathe
D/F# G C Csus2
We're together
[Chorus]
G C Csus2 G C Csus2
Tonight, the sight of your tired eyes
D/F# G Em7 C
And we'll lay here as one whilst we wait for the sun
G
I'll wait forever
[Verse]
D/F# G C Csus2
And the morning it breaks with no sound
D/F# G C Csus2
But it lets me see the dust dance, dance
D/F# G C Csus2
Through the sliver of light it allows
D/F# G C Csus2
But I won't wake you
[Chorus]
G C Csus2 G C Csus2
Tonight, the sight of your tired eyes
D/F# G Em C
And we'll lay here as one whilst we wait for the sun
G
I'll wait forever
