Em                D
And the night was filled with laughter 

Em              Am       D
Echoing  through painted smiles

Em              D
And I knew each morning after

Em              Em
I never loved , was never touched

D                D
Gave not at all, got back as much

In the comfort of,

Em              D
Julie, how I've curse the sweet taste

Em              Am          D
Of lips that ask so much of me

Em             D
Still I wonder with every embrace

Em           Em
Could I give and not break

D             D
Should I care and forsake,  

       F7        G

Realize it isn't gonna work  anymore 

 D   G   B7
 For me   

Em
I'm afraid for maybe that somethin'
Never cared enough to be afraid
   Am
Of anything

D   G        B7       B7
Be- fore, not before ______

Em                D
Barefoot child on streets of cinder

Em            Am           D
Sleeping child the morning calls

Em                  D
Pray for spring but taste the winter

Em            Em
Take the hand, taste the kiss

D                D
Leave behind the emptiness

       F7      G
And the comfort of
