The way that sunlight flits across your skirt,
G/D F#m/A A/D Asus2/D
Makes me feel I'm I'm from another world,
G/D F#m/A A/D
To touch your face in the morning light.
G/D F#m/A Dsus2
I hope you're always gonna be a - round.
G/D F#m/A A/D
The times I've struggled to understand why,
G/D F#m/A A/D Asus2/D
The ancient proverbs like Who am I?
G/D F#m/A A/D
Why am I here and What have I done?
G/D F#m/A Dsus2
I see the answer's place my trust in you.

G/D F#m/A A/D
I want us to be like Peter Pan,
G/D F#m/A A/D Asus2/D
But dreams it seems are weightless as sand,
G/D F#m/A A/D
And man's supposed is made of sand,
G/D F#m/A Dsus2
It seems that man cannot survive at all.
A Amaj7
Let's dissapear love, let's fly away,
A7 A6 Bsus4 B
Into the demi-mode, into the twilight zone.

G/D F#m/A A/D
The times inside I spent screaming at you,
G/D F#m/A A/D Asus2/D
Release me please from this mortal jail,
G/D F#m/A A/D
One shrug or smile can determine my fate,
G/D F#m/A Dsus2
I'm lost for days and have myself to blame.

Something like sunlight, Love is a spotlight.
