Intro: 2x Verse without lyrics
Verse:
[D#m]Eyes betray the [Bbm]soul and bear its[D#m] thinking[(Bbm)]
Beyond [D#m]words, they say so [Bbm]many things to[D#m] me.[(Bbm)]
A stranger [F#]here, reborn it[C#] seems, awaking [D#m]wonders deep in[(F#)] me
If nothing's [D#m]ventured, nothing's [Bbm]gained, so I must[D#m] seize the day[(Bbm)].
Chorus 1:
And fighting [F#]time, so hard I[C#] pray that this [D#m]moment lasts forever
And will the [F#]world stay standing [C#]still at least for m[D#m]e.
Through my [F#]eyes stare into m[C#]e. I bare my h[D#m]eart for all to see
With my [F#]face turned to the s[C#]un there ever [D#m]standing still.
Verse:
It wasn't you, it wasn't me, it wasn't anything
It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me.
I let the wind run through my hands before I turned to walk away.
In distant days I long to sense it all so clear.
Chorus 2:
And fighting [F#]time, so much I[C#] ask, I will thi[D#m]s moment last forever
Though season[F#]s change, things com[C#]e to pass, remain in[D#m]side of me
And fighting [F#]time, so hard I[C#] pray that this [D#m]moment lasts forever
And will the [F#]world stay standing [C#]still at least for m[D#m]e.
Verse:
I had no faith, before that time in any vow or deed.
Days followed days, and years were meaningless.
Despite the wisdom of defeat I bore my heart for all to see.
The wonders I had seen, the wonders I had seen.
(Chorus 1)
(Chorus 2)
