    Bm D   A          Em
The sky is changing
    G                     Bm
The clouds are gathering, we can see
             G             F#
It's growing darker day by day,
           Bm    D
But I'm so high
    A              Em
Within this stormy weather
    G                  Bm
God is the wind, could take my soul,
G    Em   Bm
Even as I pray. 
A               G
  You with your lack of time
F#                    Bm
Me with my lack of space,
Em            Bm
Where are you now my love?
G            Em       Bm
Lost in your reckless dreams.

Repeat Intro Part 2

I tried to share your garden of Eden,
But temptation trims the wings of those
Who only wish to know.
Denied - stop looking for a reason,
It's hard to face the time to fly,
Harder still to go. 

You with your lust for time,
Me with my lust for space,
Where are you now my love?
Lost in your restless dreams.

  And though we're strong and tough,  can our hearts open wide enough,

Bm               G                  D        A
To recognise the faults and then to smile?

D             D/F#              G                    A
And though we tear each other's hearts and minds, we show no sense,

Bm                    G        D             D/F#
We can still have our innocence,like a child.
