Am Dm
Remember that night...
F Em
White sails in the moonlight
Am Dm
They walked it too...
F Em
Through empty playground, this ghost's town
Am Dm
Children again
F Em
on rusting swings getting higher
Am Dm
Sharing a dream
F Em
On an Island.... it felt right
Am Em
We lay side by side,
Gm Dm
Between the moon and the tide
Fm Cm D
Mapping the stars for a while
C D Am
Let the night surround you
C D Am
Half way to the stars
C D
Ebb and flow
C D
Let it go
C D Am
Feel her warmth beside you
Am Dm
Remember that night,
F Em
The warmth and the laughter
Am Dm
Candles burn...
F Em
Though the church was deserted
Am Dm
At dawn we went down
F Em
through empty streets to the harbour
Am Dm
Dreamers may leave ...
F Em
but we're here everafter...
Am Em
Naa na na na
Gm Dm
Na na na na na
Fm Cm D
Na na na na na na
C D Am
Let the night surround you
C D Am
Half way to the stars
C D
Ebb and flow
C D
Let it go
C D Am
Feel her warmth beside you
