Verse 1
Listen [Bm] as the wind blows
[A] From [E] across the great [Esus4] divide
Voices [Bm] trapped in yearning
[A] Memories [E] trapped in time [Esus4]
The [Bm] night is my com- [A] -panion
And [E] solitude my [Esus4] guide
[G] Would I spend [Bm] forever here
And [Esus4] not be satis- [E] -fied
Chorus
And [G] I would be the [D/F#] one
To hold you [D] down
Kiss you [G] so hard
I'll take your [D/F#] breath a- [G] -way
And after [Bm] I
Wipe a- [D] -way the tears
Just [G] close your [D/F#] eyes dear
Verse 2
[Bm] Through this world I [A] stumble
So [E] many times be- [Esus4] -trayed
Trying to [Bm] find an honest [A] word
To find [E] the truth en- [Esus4] -slaved
Oh you [Bm] speak to me in [A] riddles
And you [E] speak to me in [Esus4] rhymes
My [G] body aches to [Bm] breathe your breath
Your [Esus4] words keep me a- [E] -live
Chorus
And [G] I would [D/F#] be the [Bm] one
To hold you [D] down
Kiss you [G] so hard
I'll take your [D/F#] breath [G] away
And after [Bm] I
Wipe [D] away the tears
Just [G] close your [D/F#] eyes dear
Verse 3
In- [Bm] -to this night I [A] wander
It's [E] morning that I [Esus4] dread
A- [Bm] -nother day of [A] knowing of
The [E] path I fear to [Esus4] tread
Oh in- [Bm] -to the sea of [A] waking dreams
I [E] follow without [Esus4] pride
It's [G] nothing stands be- [Bm] -tween us here
And [Esus4] I won't be de-[E] -nied
Chorus
And [G] I would [D/F#] be the [Bm] one
To hold you [D] down
Kiss you [G] so hard
I'll take your [D/F#] breath [G] away
And after [Bm] I
Wipe [D] away the tears
Just [G] close your [D/F#] eyes
