Introduction: F
F
Lover, have you solved your love today?
Gm Dm
And you've been running around trying to figure it out
C
But you don't need this anymore
F
And lovers you gave your hearts away
Gm Dm
And you've been coming around trying to hold me down
C
But you can't keep me anymore
Bb C
When you're close enough to whisper in my ear
Dm
But I can't reach you anymore
C
When you close me off and turn away
Bb
I feel like I could die
F Dm
When we cling to it, when we hold it too close
Bb F
It gets away from us, and we've started to grow old
Dm
When it's creeping in, and we've nowhere to hide
Bb F
We try to love again, we'll try to love again
F
And you've been holed up in a house
Gm
And they've been coming at your gates
Dm
And you've been holding your ground
C
But you can't hold this anymore
Bb C
When you're close enough to whisper in my ear
Dm
But I can't reach you anymore
C
When you close me off and turn away
Bb
I feel like I keep falling down
F Dm
When we cling to it, when we hold it too close
Bb F
It gets away from us, and we've started to grow old
Dm
When it's creeping in, and we've nowhere to hide
Bb F
We try to love again, we'll try to love again
F
