Verse 1
[F#] I'd say love was a [C#/F#] magical [F#] thing
[F#] I'd say love would [C#/F#] keep us from [F#] pain
Had I [Abm7] been there, had I [F#] been there
[F#] I would promise you [C#/F#] all of my [F#] life
[F#] But to lose you would [C#/F#] cut like a [F#] knife
So I [Abm] don't dare, no I don't [F#] dare
'Cause I've [F#] never come close in [C#/F#] all of these [F#] years
[F#] You are the only one to [C#/F#] stop my [F#] tears
And [Abm7] I'm so scared, I'm so [F#] scared
Interlude
[F#] [C#/F#] [F#] [F#] [F#] [C#/F#] [F#] [Abm7] [F#]
Verse 2
Take [F#] me back in time maybe [C#/F#] I can forget
[F#] Turn a different corner and we [C#/F#] never would [F#] have [Abm7] met
Would you [F#] care?
I [F#] don't understand it, for [C#/F#] you it's a [F#] breeze
[F#] Little by little, you've [C#/F#] brought me [F#] to my [Abm7] [F#] knees
Don't you care?
No, I've [F#] never come close in [C#/F#] all of these [F#] years
[F#] You are the only one to [C#/F#] stop my [F#] tears
[Abm7] I'm so scared of this [F#] love
And if [F#] all that there is, is this [C#/F#] fear of being [F#] used
[F#] I should go back to being [C#/F#] lonely and [F#] [Abm7] confused
If I [F#] could, I would, I [F#] swear
