 AmAnd everywhere we were We Fmade the city sing
 CWe sang forever young we had our finger crossed
 AmAnd when the city sleepsF, it dreams of us

 COur love it changes shape it glows in many shades
 AmWe won't be gone as longe aFs our echos resonate
 CWe need no photographs the past's not only past
 AmI find us everywherFe and that's how the magic lasts
[Chorus]
 DmCause everywhere we've been we Fhave been leaving traceAms
They won't ever disappeGar we were here, we were here we were really hFere
