[F] Then one day you [C]came,

And [Am]made me cry a-[E]gain.

[E] When [Am]you [G/B]said...

[E] So he [Am]left [G/B]me...

Verse 4:

[F] Once again a-[C]lone,
Like a [Dm]child,

I was [Am]still in love with [E]you.

[E] But [Am]you [G/B]said...

Break:

[C] Love has [Am]never shown his face,

Can't you see it's you I'm waiting for?
