intro:

C A# F# F#-G# F# F#-G#

C A# F# F#-G# F# F#-G#

verse 1:

G#

The signal is subtle

Fm F#

We pass just close enough to touch

G#

No questions, no answers

Fm F#

We know by now to say enough

G#

With only simple words

Fm F#

With only subtle turns

G#

The things we feel alone for one another

chorus:

F# A#m

There is a secret that we keep

C#

I won't sleep if you won't sleep

F# A#m G#

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given

F# A#m C#

We are compelled to do what we must do

F# A#m G#

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

Fm F#

So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

verse 2:

G#

Our act of defiance

Fm F#

We keep this secret in our blood

G#

No paper or letters

Fm F#

We pass just close enough to touch

G#

We love in secret names

Fm F#

We hide within our veins

G#

The things that keep us bound to one another

chorus:

F# A#m

There is a secret that we keep

C#

I won't sleep if you won't sleep

F# A#m G#

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given

F# A#m C#

We are compelled to do what we must do

F# A#m G#

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

bridge:

A#m

Until the last resilient hope

F#

Has frozen deep inside my bones

C#

And this broken fate has claimed me

F#

And my memories for its own

A#m

Your name is pounding through my veins

F#

Can't you hear how it is sung?

C#

And I can taste you in my mouth

G#

Before the words escape my lungs

C#

And I'll whisper only once...

chorus:

F# A#m

There is a secret that we keep

C#

I won't sleep if you won't sleep

F# A#m G#

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given

F# A#m C#

We are compelled to do what we have to

F# A#m G#

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

ending:

F# A#m C#

'Cause you will be somebody's girl

F# A#m G#

And you will keep each other warm

F# C# A#m G# F#

But tonight I am feeling cold
