D A
I used to wake up nights
D A
Callin out your name
D A
Then I d cry myself back to sleep
D A
Knowing I d only dreamed
D A
I stayed inside for days
D A
Trapped within my mind
D A
Wounderin where you had gone
D A
Convinced I could not go on
D A
Now just when I started feeling
D A
Those hands of time start to healing
D A
You re here at my door
D A
Saying your new dreams
D A
Had led you back to me
Chorus
D
Where were you
When I was going crazy
A
Where were you
Did you know what your leavin
D
Put me through
A
You were feeling lost, last thing I knew
D A D
You went off to find yourself
Where were you
I can t pretend I m strong
Or act like I don t care
But I won t betray my heart
Now that we ve come this far
I let you go cause I had to
I ll close this door cause I need to
This tunnel has a light
It s not that far away
It s brighter every day
chorus
