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

'til the night train comes
