then   E    for a while back to the chord progression
C#mThis sBong Is G#mone I never F#thought that I'd
C#mplay But if you wBant me gone
There are kG#minder ways F#to say

I pray
There will come a time when I think of you and I smile
These days
Everything seems too lost only a while (?)
Remember the names
For the day when we’d have a child
But the trouble with dreams, they’re not what they seem, ‘cause when you awake, they
through your fingers
In flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes
