Late For The Sky

C                             G  
All the words that all've been spoken,  
            F                    C  
and somehow the feeling still wasn't right,  
F            Am        G              F     C  
and still we continued on through the night.  
                             G  
Tracing our steps from the beginning,  
          F                 C  
till they vanished into the air.  
F                        Am       G          F     C  
Trying to understand how our live had let us there.  
  
F            Am                        G      F        G  
Looking hard into your eyes, there was nobody I'd ever known.  
              F        Am         G  
Such an empty surprise to feel so alone.  
  
        C                   G  
Now for me, some words come easy  
                F                    C  
but I know that they don't mean that much,  
F                 Am                   G           C  
compared with the things that they say when lovers touch.  
C                        G  
You'll never knew what I loved in you,  
             F                 C  
I don't know what you loved in me.  
F                        Am            G                 F     C  
Maybe the picture of somebody you will hope that I might be.  
  
F              Am                  G         C G  
Awake again, I can't pretend and I know I am alone.  
    F            Am                       G C G  
And close to the end of the feeling we've known.  
F                    C  
How long have I been sleeping?  
F                    Am         G               C  
How long have I been drifting alone through the night?  
F                    Am  
How long have I been dreaming I  
G                        C  
could make it right if I close my eyes  
        F                           Am  
and try with all my might to be the one you need ...  
  
F              Am                  G         C G  
Awake again, I can't pretend and I know I am alone.  
    F            Am                       G C G  
And close to the end of the feeling we've known.  
F                    C  
How long have I been sleeping?  
F                    Am         G               C  
How long have I been drifting alone through the night?  
F                    Am  
How long have I been running for  
G                                          C  
that morning flight through the whispering promises  
       F                     C                 G  
in the changing light of the bed where we both lie,  
             C  
late for the sky.
