Yes I do, I believe

That one day I will be, where I was A

Right there, right next to you

And it's hard, the days just seem so dark

The moon, the stars, are nothing without you

E Your touch, your skin, where do I begin? A No words can explain, the way I'm missing you

The night, this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside

These tears, they tell their own story

F#m A C#m B You told me not to cry when you were gone F#m A E A/B But the feelings overwhelming, it's much too strong E C#m F#m A Can I lay by your side, next to you, you E C#m And make sure you're alright F#m I'll take care of you, A A/B E And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight

E I'm reaching out to you A Can you hear my call? E This hurt that I've been through A I'm missing you, missing you like crazy

F#m A C#m B You told me not to cry when you were gone F#m A E/B A/B But the feelings overwhelming, it's much too strong E B/D# C#m F#m A Can I lay by your side, next to you, you E C#m And make sure you're alright F#m I'll take care of you, A A/B F#m And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
