A E
Pale snow white with cherry lips
Your taste will linger
D
like the last time
A
The shadows 'neath your eyes
E
hide under thick black lines
D
that draw me in
A E
I'm alive in broken moments
but mostly living for the
D
sparkling gold that flecks
A
the ocean of your eyes
D
Those shining promises
E
Relieve me of my senses
D
and I simply smile
A D E A
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
D E A
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
E
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
D
'til the night train comes
A E
Open hearts and zipped down jeans
our passion's stilted
D
by the fear of being caught
A
Or fear of growing close
E
and never letting go
D
I crossed your lines
A
Throw words around
E
and skirt around the ones that matter
D
Decide it isn't time,
A E
Not now, not yet
A
But you don't leave
E
You don't leave
D
Well please don't leave
A D E A
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
D E A
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
E
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
D
'til the night train comes
E
And all this waiting
D
All this suppression
A
I don't know what it's doing to you
E
But it's killing me
A
And when the night train comes
E
we're still talking about us
D
and when you realise
you quickly take your leave
A
At the bus stop we are silent
E
we barely touch
D
But inwardly I'm crying out
A
As the bus comes round the corner
E
We make fleeting goodbyes
D
and with a kiss you're gone
A
until the next time
And I'm left hoping
E
I'm left hoping
D
Hoping I'll see you again
A D E A
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
D E A
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
E
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
A
'til the night train comes
