GUITAR I

Em

One cold damp evening

C

The world stood still

Am D

I watched as I held my breath

A silhouette I thought I knew

Came through

And someone spoke to me

Em C

Whispered in my ear

Am

This fantasy's for you

D Em

Fantasies are "in" this year

VERSE 2

--------------------------------------------------

GUITAR I

Em C

My whole life flashed before my eyes

Am

I thought

D

What they say is true

Em C

I shed my skin and my disguise

Am D

And cold, numb and naked

Em

I emerged from my cocoon

C Am

While a half remembered tune

D Em

Played softly in my head

He said

GUITAR II (strums each chord once)

Em, C, Am, D, Dsus4 X3

I realise a miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

I realise a miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

But is this the stuff dreams are made of

If this is the stuff dreams are made of

No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air

No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air

No wonder I feel like I'm floating on

Floating on air

It's like you fail to make the connection

You know how vital it is

Or when something slips through your fingers

You know how precious it is

Well you reach the point where you know it's

only your second skin

It's only your second skin
