Night Train

(início)

G                            D
Pale snow white with cherry lips
Your taste will linger
          C
like the last time
G
The shadows 'neath your eyes
      D
hide under thick black lines
             C
that draw me in
G                     D
I'm alive in broken moments
but mostly living for the
C
sparkling gold that flecks
     G
the ocean of your eyes
C
Those shining promises
D
Relieve me of my senses
       C
and I simply smile
 G       C   D                             G
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
        C     D                          G
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
         D
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
                      C
'til the night train comes
G                            D
Open hearts and zipped down jeans
our passion's stilted
        C
by the fear of being caught
G
Or fear of growing close
     D
and never letting go
   C
I crossed your lines
G
Throw words around
     D
and skirt around the ones that matter
C
Decide it isn't time,
G        D
Not now, not yet
G
But you don't leave
D
You don't leave
C
Well please don't leave
G       C    D                            G
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
         C   D                          G
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
         D
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
                      C
'til the night train comes
D
And all this waiting
             C
All this suppression
G
I don't know what it's doing to you
D
But it's killing me
G
And when the night train comes
              D
we're still talking about us
              C
and when you realise
you quickly take your leave
G
At the bus stop we are silent
D
we barely touch
      C
But inwardly I'm crying out
G
As the bus comes round the corner
         D
We make fleeting goodbyes
            C
and with a kiss you're gone
G
until the next time
And I'm left hoping
D
I'm left hoping
C
Hoping I'll see you again
G       C    D                            G
Sing to me; your voice is all I strain to hear
        C     D                          G
Talk to me - for conversation keeps you near
           D
Kiss me gently, I will hold you
                      G
'til the night train comes
