wait for dark to see you climbing out your window
A
something’s gone wrong with the weather
E
there’s a storm out in the desert
D
but to us that all seemed very far away

E D
sometimes , when i
E D
think about those days it makes me wonder

what went by

she was so damn wild
D A D E

too soon , out of time
D A

A D

A
while the iron curtain fell
E
we were lying in a field

that we’d stay this way forever
