from the album Babylon (2000)
Verse 1:
E A B E
There was once a time long ago
B/D# C#m B A Bsus4
When true love drew man and woman together
B E A B C#m
She was all he wanted to know
B A E A Bsus4 B
And he swore that he would love her forever
C#m A E Bsus4 B
So the light fades the colours of life when it's gone
C#m A E Bsus4 B
Like a lost ship of dreams that failed to sail
F#m E A B C#m
But to him she was more than just another fairy-tale
F#m E A B
She became his reality unveiled
Chorus:
A E
Silent rain
B A E
You and I have shared the fears the night betrayed
B A A
Through the eyes where love appeared but died in vain
E/G# F#m D
Torn open, bound together
E
Silent rain
B A E
Even now, you hide the tears, you light the way
B A
Through the darkness that remains
A E/G# F#m D
A brand new day, dawns broken, now, forever
E B A
Silent rain
Verse 2:
E A B E
Wait for me, one bright star away
B/D# C#m B A Bsus4
There we'll spend our timeless moments together
B E A B C#m B
What we built let no one replace
A E A Bsus4 B
There's a place here in my heart child, forever
C#m A E Bsus4 B
If the light fades the colours of life when it's gone
C#m A E Bsus4 B
Like a lost ship of dreams that failed to sail
F#m E A B C#m
We will prove we were more than just another fairy-tale
F#m E A B
What we had was reality unveiled
