G C G BmI Am here to tell you we can never meet again
Em C G DSimple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
G C G BmA lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
Em G CYou think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
Am DThe someone you once loved so long ago so well
G C G BmNever wonder what I'll feel as living shuffle by
Em C G DYou don't have to ask me and I need not reply
G C G BmEvery moment of my life from now until I die
Em G CI will think or dream of you and fail to understand
Am DHow a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
GIs it written in the stars
EmAre we paying for some crime
CIs that all that we are good for
DJust a stretch of mortal time
GIs this God's experiment
EmIn which we have no say
CIn which we're given paradise
DBut only for a day
G C G BmNothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
Em G C BmNo escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
G C G BmYou are all I'll ever want, but this I Am denied
Em G CSometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
Am DWhat it is to be in love and have that love returned
GIs it written in the stars
EmAre we paying for some crime
CIs that all that we are good for
DJust a stretch of mortal time
GIs this God's experiment
EmIn which we have no say
CIn which we're given paradise
DBut only for a day
