           Bm

Vers1      I’m lying awake, alone with my thoughts

               A

           The digital numbers staring at me

            G           A               Bm

           From the clockradio, sleep is what I ought

          

           But it's creeping in my body, uncertainty

           And I know, something is wrong

           Anxiety tears me apart , what could it be?

 

           Bm                       G

Bridge1    I wish I could turn back time

               A                    Bm    A

           And stay where you where mine

           Bm                     G

           All missunderstandings far away

           A        Bm  A

           All just fine

Chorus     What I’d give to touch your hand

                                     Bm

           See your smile, and hold you near

                                 G

           I would pay what ever to make things right

           But now you're so far away

 

           I would climb too moon

           Touch sun, but I am such a fool

           To let you be this far away

           Far away, you're to far away

Vers2      I can still remember, how you walked out through the door

           Never touch, never feel

           I will never hold you, close to me, anymore

 

           Memories is what is left, thin, whittered and pale

           Never talk, never see

           Makes it easier to forget, forget for me

              

              F#         Bm

Bridge2 I can see how my dreams

                 F#         Bm

           I can see how my visions

                G

           Come undone

            A                 D               A

           And turn to rottening pieces, falling down 

          

                F#                Bm

           Falling down like pouring rain

                    F#           Bm

           But it wont wash away my pain

               G                A

           I will drown, like in a flood

                 D                 A      F#

           But even than, I wont give up
