INTRO: G
G
I. I'd love to hold you
C G
and not just look at your face.
now that I've told you,
A9 D7
must I also erase
C
all the pain, all the pain
G D C
your old love made you feel?
D
or should I wait
Em D G
for all the wounds to heal?
G
II. have you decided
C G
you never will love again?
as if your pride could
A9 D7
be the same as a friend?
C
only love, only love
G D C
can take the place of love.
D Em
and any other truth
D G
is just pretend.
C
BRIDGE A: you're in the middle, in the middle

of a bridge to me.

come on over, come on over.

leave your life's debris.

like a roadside dog.

this one-track monologue.

II. maybe you're thinkin'
C G
I know my line by heart.
but I'm not a phony
A9 D7
like you meet at the singles bar.
C
it's just me, and there's just you
G D C
smiling as if to say:

come on and touch me,

come on and touch me,

it's okay!
