intro
C Am G Am F

verse 1

Am G F
we wandered off like children in the woods
Am G F
and let the searchers come but never find us
Am G F
we tried to make a life among the trees
Am G F
while your dreams collected planes and cars and cities
Am G F
you slipped away from me while i was sleeping
Am G F
to climb the tallest oak and see the lights
Am G F
your dissatisfaction gave you questions
Am G F
do you remember what the city sounded like?
Am G F
do you remember what the city sounded like?

chorus

C G Am
so stay up with me dont fall asleep
Am G F
because we only have this moment once in our lives
C G Am
next time well meet under city lights
Am G F
but were here tonight , so lets make it all it was meant to be

verse 2

Am G F
so i held you but the call was from inside
Am G F
and i knew i couldnt keep you if i tried
Am G F
but i watched as the distance spread , as the shadows grew
Am G F
and the longings came like wolves to devour you
