Dm A# C F
breathing is a sin they say
A#maj7 C A# A7
loneliness the price to pay
Dm A# C F
sad for you i go once more
A#maj7 C A# A7
i’ll dry my eyes on a distant shore

Gm Dm C Dm
no way of freezing a rising tide
Gm A# E7 A
no way of keeping you by my side
Gm Dm C Dm
like a bird i’ll fly high
Gm F A# C Dm
guarding over this love of mine

Dm A# C F
a room of trust , a room of fears
A#maj7 C A# A7
a room of laughter with a few sweet tears
Dm A# C F
there we lay that sunny dawn
A#maj7 C A# A7
calm but helpless as we lingered on

Gm Dm C Dm
no way of breaking the march of time
Gm A# E7 A
no way of keeping our love sublime
Gm Dm C Dm
like a bird i’ll fly high
Gm F A# C Dm
watching over this love of mine

Dm A# C F
many times we hurry by
A#maj7 C A# A7
lose our problems in a knowing smile
Dm A# C F
many days were swept along
A#maj7 C A# A7
left unnoticed as our love grew strong

Gm Dm C Dm
believing each of us would always know
Gm A# E7 A
believing one of us would never go
Gm Dm C Dm
like a bird i’ll fly high
Gm F A# C Dm
watching over this love of mine
