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