For the hearts that never played in tune

We tripped the light and danced together to the moon

But where was June? No it ne.....ver came around
C#maj7 Fm7 Fm9
If it did, it never made a sound
[Chorus 1]
A#m7 G#/C C# G#/C
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast

Catching all the words but then the meaning going past
[Chorus 2]

Closer to her than to me

C#maj7 Fm7 Fm9
And the reasons that would make her stay
[Chorus 1]
A#m7 G#/C C# G#/C
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
A#m7 G#/C C# Fm/D
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best

Oh, how I miss the girl
G#7 C#
And I'd go a million times around the world just to say
C#m G#
She had been mine for a day.
