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