C C/B Am7 G

When you were asleep I was kissing your forehead

C C/B Am7 G

You gave a frown so I kissed you again

C C/B Am7 G

You started waking and put your arms around my waist

C C/B Am7 G C C B Am7

Just making sure I was there then you drifted away

G C C/B Am7 G

Then you drifted away

C C/B Am7 G

And when I awoke I found out I'd been dreaming

C C/B Am7 G

Some of my bed clothes were still on the floor

C C/B Am7 G

I looked around realised you were leaving me

C C/B Am7 G C C B Am7

I saw the back of your dress as you slipped through the door

G C C/B Am7 G

As you slipped through the door, na na na na na ...

C C/B Am7 G

Na na na na na ....

C C/B Am7 G

Na na na na na ....

And when I return I will kiss your eyes open

C C/B Am7 G

Take off my clothes and I'll lie by your side

C C/B Am7 G

Then I will wait till the sandman has done with you

C C/B Am7 G C C B Am7

And as you sleepily rise you'll find I'll be there

G C C/B Am7 G C C B Am7 G C

You'll find I'll be there na na na
