It's written in   the surface of   her skin,
        C#m7 F#  Bm7       E9
there's been a   baby there,
Em7     A11   Dmaj9  Dmaj7
given away in love.
  G      Asus A   D       Asus A
I see it in   the little lines
   Bm        C#m F# Bm7       E9
around her eyes, across her brow.
Em7          G          C           D  D9 D
   She'll be drifting away from me now.
Bm7                    C#m7           F#            Bm7
  She'll shape all the feeling that's not quite there
    E7        Asus A
inside my soul.
Bm7         C#m7  F#7
  Love has gone away now,
Bm7        E9     Em7    Asus A
leaving behind an empty hole.
     D9          Cadd9                    G
And who am I to try to compete with the din,
                  F#7    C#m7  F#7  Bm7
as the silence so easily rush-es    in?
       Am7 C/D G
I will fly a-way.
       Em7         Asus A  D9      D
It was something I on - ly dreamed of,
Bm7            C#m7    F#7   Bm7  E7
something that I'm not quite sure of,
Em7                 Asus  A    Cadd9
something that I'll never tell you about.
G  A   D        Asus A
La la la …
