A    A#                 A
Who set my heart ever drifting?
              A#           A     A7
You from the start, never lifting
C#7                       F#7
I fight it but it downs me
                        C#7
Despite the joy around me
          E7              A7   E7 A
I can't free myself from sorrow

All through the day it's a wonder
Fall will the night, still I wonder
If I'm the only
Or are you as lonely?
Come home to me tomorrow

 C              G7  C
Why should the past so change
How you feel?
          G7        C                A#
Oh but I ask you forgive, if you will
       F7          A#
These lonely hours are so hard to bear
         F7       A#      E7
I don't deny that I was unfair

You paid enough to be gay
Who made me love you this way?
So give me the chance to renew our romance
For this time I know it will stay

Oh yes, this time I know it will stay
