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