BbDon't turn around now
I Cheard you whisper in my ear
FIf you should turn now 
All that you won will Bbvanish
Just like a Cpassing dream
FJust on the very verge of the

freedom was but a Cstep away
FNow with the deep dark river behind us
Bbwhat could go wrong if I Cstayed
strong in mind
FWhat was the sudden lapse into madness

ah ah ah ah ah aah ah ah ah ah ah aah

Out of the land of shadows and

darkness we were returning

Towards the morning light

Almost in reach of places I knew

Escaping the ghosts of

yesterday

You were behind me following closely

Don't turn around now

I heard you whisper in my ear

If you should turn now

All that you won will vanish

Just like a passing dream

Just on the very verge of the

morning daylight was dawning

freedom was but a step away

Now with the deep dark river behind us

Bb C

what could go wrong if I stayed

strong in mind

What was the sudden lapse into madness

Bb C

What was the urge that turned my head around

to look at you

What was the stubborn will to destroy

the love and the joy

I nearly held

Music break

Bb C F Dm Bb C F Bb C F Dm C

Three times the thunder roared in my ears

Bb C

In all of my years I'll see that lost

look in your eyes

As with a sigh like smoke in the wind

Bb C

You slipped from my grasp in to

the waiting shadows

So much I longed to say

but my touch found only the

empty air and a black nights coldness

Into another world you entered

Bb C

And never again can I reclaim you
