here in our bed until the morning comes.

     D    A         D          A               Bm       A
With love we sleep; with doubt the vicious circle turns and burns.

D       A        Bm        A       D        A
Without you I cannot live, forgive the yearning burning.

I believe it's time, too real to feel.
