Wish that I could wind
Gm     Bb                   Gm
Like a spiral stair through time

With your body next to mine

Warm and satisfying

Or has time rewritten every line
Gm        F#                          F
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Cm   F        Am  Cm    C    Cm F        
Tell me would we, could we
