We  sat on the beach and watched as the sun rose into the summer air

Somehow reading your name it wasn't the same as leaving the thing unsaid

How come I miss what I never knew  And

Gm9          Bbmaj9       C2       Dm7
Drag out the past just to paint it blue

And spend my days with a dream of you?
