Em
In and out of darkness, in and out of sleep

                   G               Em
Trying to keep my hands upon the wheel

                                     Cadd9
Never saw the corner in the driving rain

  Em         G               Em
I never saw her step into the street
[Pre-Chorus]

Em
I can never understand what went through my mind

                  G            Em
I didn't stop to see what I had done

                                        Cadd9
I had to keep on driving deep into the night

     Em                G              Em
The miles between would somehow put it right
[Pre-Chorus]

Memories to keep

        C            Bm
All my life you lie silently there

        C         Bm
All my life in a world so unfair

        C       Bm               Em
All my life and only I'll know why

             D              C
And it will live inside of me

        Bm                   C
I will never be free all my life

            Bm             C
Trapped in her memory all my life

          Bm                    Am
'Til the day that you open your eyes

        G    D/F#  Em   D         C
Please, oh,  oh,   oh,  open your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]

 Em
Heard it on the radio, saw it on TV

                  G                 Em
But could I take my secret to the grave

                                         Cadd9
If I had another chance, would I do the same?

 Em            G                Em
Would I still deny that it was me?
[Pre-Chorus]
  Em                       A   G   A   G 
Dreaming while you sleep

  Em                       A   G   A   G
Dreaming while you sleep

  Em                       A   G   A   G
Dreaming while you sleep

          Em                       A   G   A   G
Are you dreaming while you sleep?

And it will live inside of me

I will never be free all my life

            Bm             C

 Just one moment of time, all my life
