D                                    E
I feel your shimmering eyes into my soul
          D                                         E
And your life is all around my time, now don't you know
D                                         E
Every time your sunrise drives my night away
             D                                                          E
It make my lifetime soar in circles, like the swallows wheeling in the day
D                          E     D                      E
Now our time can start to run.  The hourglass has just begun
D                          E       D                E    D  A  B  E (2X)
Life was meant for having fun.  As we were meant to be

           D       A       B        E
I've been living blind in one eyed land.
  D          A        B           E
Among those kings I thought were grand
       D        A    B      E          D        A      B    E
Till time had opened up my eyes.  And there I found to my surprise
            D                                        E
That life without you was empty as a nest in winter lie

D                                                  E
Strolling in the garden, sunshine of a California day
         D                                                   E
With you by my side, the tears we cried have dried and gone away
        D                                                       E
The darkness of the Northland, the wintertime has all begun to run
              D                                                        E
Through the deltas of a passing sorrow, now that you and I are really one
D                         E           D                          E
Now we're flying down the way, where all our hopes have time to stay
D                         E           D               E
And we can marvel at the time, that floats us in its path

           D       A       B        E
I've been living blind in one eyed land.
  D          A        B           E
Among those kings I thought were grand
       D        A    B      E          D        A      B    E
Till time had opened up my eyes.  And there I found to my surprise
            D                                        E
That life without you was empty as a nest in winters lie
