F G C
I've been loving you a long time
F G C
Down all the years, down all the days
F G C
And I've cried for all your troubles
F G C
Smiled at your funny little ways
F G C
We watched our friends grow up together
F G C
And we saw them as they fell
F G C
Some of them fell into Heaven
F G C
Some of them fell into Hell
F G C
I took shelter from a shower
F G C
And I stepped into your arms
F G C
On a rainy night in Soho
F G C
The wind was whistling all its charms
F G C
I sang you all my sorrows
F G C
You told me all your joys
F G C
Whatever happened to that old song
F G C
To all those little girls and boys

F G C
Sometimes I wake up in the morning
F G C
The gingerlady by my bed
F G C
Covered in a cloak of silence
F G C
I hear you talking in my head
F G C
I'm not singing for the future
F G C
I'm not dreaming of the past
F G C
I'm not talking of the first time
F G C
I never think about the last
F G C
Now the song is nearly over
F G C
We may never find out what it means
F G C
Still there's a light I hold before me
F
You're the measure of my dreams
G C
The measure of my dreams
