[Verse 1] (C#, F#9)
C#
I counted the stars tonight,

C#                    F#9
Oh how they shine so bright,

   C#                     F#9                C#
I gather them all, so we perfectly align

C#
While we gaze from far away.

C#                         F#9
And separately watch the day

     C#                 F#9              C#
Come rising across the horizon in our minds.
[Chorus] (F#9, C#, G#9)
          F#9   C#
But now I know,

          F#9    C#
My heart is strong,

          F#9    C#
Where you belong

         G#9
Is by my side.

            F#9   C#
So will you hold,

               F#9   C#
'cause time is cold,

            F#9  C#
But in your soul

             G#9
I'm standing by.

C#   F#9   C# G#9      F#9   C# G#9
Ohohohohohoh ohohohohohoh
[Verse 1] (C#, F#9)
C#
I have waited a thousand years,

                        F#9
And now that tomorrow's here,

       C#                    
I will shout from the mountain top

F#9                 C#
Our hearts belong near.

C# 
And we've traveled land and sea,

                       F#9
Our beacon the love we keep,

    C#
But when we unite,

          F#9                   C#
This will all have been our dream.
[Chorus] (F#9, C#, G#9)
C#          F#9   C#        
And now we know,

               F#9    C#
Our hearts are strong,

         F#9    C#
Where we belong

           G#9
Is side by side.

             F#9   C#
And so we'll hold

           F#9    C#
Each other close,

           F#9   C#
And in our souls

               G#9
We're standing by.

F#9  C#  G#9    F#9   C#  G#9
Ohohohohohoh ohohohohohoh

F#9    C#     F#9    C# 
Ohohohohoh ohohohohoh

F#9    C#    G#9
Ohohohohohoh ohohohohoh

  F#9    C# F#9      C#       F#9      C#        G#9
Ohohoh ohohohohohohoh ohohohohohohoh ohohoh
[Chorus] (F#9, C#, G#9)
G#9           F#9   C#
And so we'll hold

           F#9    C#
Each other close

               F#9   C#
And then we'll know

               G#9
We're standing by.
