      Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x8

    Dm            A#maj7    A#maj7       C
You quiver like a candle on fire,
                    Dm
I'm putting you out,
        A#maj7         A#maj7        C
Maybe tonight we could be the last shout,
        Dm   A#maj7        A#maj7      C
But I'm fascinated by your style,
     Dm          A#maj7     A#maj7      C
Your beauty will last for a while.

Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x2

       Dm        A#maj7    A#maj7      C
You're feeling instead of being.
                Dm          A#maj7
The more that I live on the inside,
        A#maj7      C
There's nothing to give.
      Dm  A#maj7        A#maj7   C
I'm infatuated by your moves,
     Dm            A#maj7         A#maj7   C
I've got to search hard for your clues.

Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x2

  Dm        A#maj7      A#maj7    C
I want to repair your desire.
                  Dm
And call it a gift,
       A#maj7          A#maj7     C
That I stole from just wanting to live.
      Dm      A#maj7           A#maj7    C
Now I see the vision thru your eyes,
     Dm        A#maj7    A#maj7  C
Your innocence no longer fuels... surprise.

Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x4

A#maj7 Am7 Dm A#maj7 C

Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x12

Dm        A#maj7      A#maj7     C
Trying to outrun your fears,
                      Dm
You're running to lose,
              A#maj7
Heart on your sleeve and
     A#maj7        C
Your soul in your shoes.
       Dm      A#maj7
Take a left, a sharp left,
     A#maj7      C
And another left.
Dm             A#maj7
Meet me on the corner,
      A#maj7  C
We'll start...  again.

Dm A#maj7 A#maj7 C x6
