[Verse 1]
GWell we settled in the quiet, EmiLeft two wounded hearts to dream...
COf a love that she and I had yet to sGee. 
GBut her subtlety of urgency, FEmiell deaf and dumb on me... 
CAs we lingered a bit longer in the swGeet.
[Chorus]
EmiSo sweet dreams, Csweet lover... Be free Gto love another,
EmiI got tears enough to Coccupy the sGpace...
EmiBetween this chest and Cvacant arms, Lived tGhe girl who stole my heart...
EmiWake happy little Cangel on your wGay
[Verse 2]
GThose Arizona sunsets, Like noEmithing I had seen...
CLent blue into those eyes she swore wGere green.
GAnd morning talks with coffee, EmiMade for lovers’ poetry...
CWhile we lingered a bit longer in the Gsweet.
[Chorus]
EmiSo sweet dreams, Csweet lover... Be free Gto love another,
EmiI got tears enough to Coccupy the sGpace...
EmiBetween this chest and Cvacant arms, Lived tGhe girl who stole my heart...
EmiWake happy little Cangel on your wGay 
[Bridge]
EmiAnd my first wish wasn’t for us to be friGends
EmiBut love’s last words must one day find their Gend
And befoCre the blue runs from tEmihose pretty greGens...

Well I got one last wish from you...     from me

G Emi

Well we settled in the quiet, Left two wounded hearts to dream...

Of a love that she and I had yet to see.

As we lingered a bit longer in the sweet.

[Chorus]

So sweet dreams, sweet lover... Be free to love another,

I got tears enough to occupy the space...

Between this chest and vacant arms, Lived the girl who stole my heart...

Wake happy little angel on your way

Well I got one last wish from you... from me
