INTRO:
C Em Am F
C Em
You and I walking slowly
Am
Hand in hand Footprints in the sand
F
Watch the wind as it plays throwing shadows across your face
C Em
The sky was so blue
Am
Your eyes so green the air glittering
F
So sudden, so swift love came to us just like a gift
Dm G
I lived here, you lived far away
Em Am
Our lives called us back, no we could not stay
Dm Em
With a sad sort of smile you took my hand
G
Said while we're apart you hope I understand that
C Em
You'll be holding me And I'll be holding you
Am
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through
F
When you see the stars pretend they're my arms
C
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there
Em
Say you love me and I will say I love you
Am
No distance could ever make that untrue
F
When I'm far away I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind you'll hear me saying
C F G C
I love you for - ever
C Em
Fast forward our love story
Am
I still remember that day her small precious face
F
You stared into her eyes hypnotized by her smile
Dm G
But your job meant you had to travel
Em Am
But we weren't ready for you to go
Dm Em
You held our daughter with a sad sort of smile
G
Said while we're apart I want you to know that
C Em
You'll be holding me And I'll be holding you
Am
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through
F
When you see the stars pretend they're my arms
C
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there
Em
Say you love me and I will say I love you
Am
No distance could ever make that untrue
F
When I'm far away I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind you'll hear me saying
C F G C
I love you for - ever
Am F
God forbid there'll come a day
G Em
When the light in my eyes fades away
Am F
But from your hearts I will not go
G
No bounds shall my spirit know, cause
C Em
You'll be holding me And I'll be holding you
Am
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through
F
When you see the stars pretend they're my arms
C
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there
Em
Say you love me and I will say I love you
Am
No distance could ever make that untrue
F
When I'm far away I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind you'll hear me saying
C F G C
I love you for - ever
