Before it took you away
Am F C
I tried to think of something I could say
F C
I watched the shadows in the hall
Am F C
How they danced with the light and the white on the walls
Your face in these pictures looks like a poem
Your eyes lit up like a river stone
Your body so much like a blanket thrown
Am F Fmaj7
On a warm bed at night, like a house in a storm

Then you walk right through the doorway
Am F C
You tell me you're here to stay

The worst is gone and by God I love
Am F C
If you'd been here this way

I surprise myself sometimes
Am F C
The way the days unfold and this road unwinds

And the miles seem like inches when I think of you

I spent 25 months chasing this song

If you'd been here to stay
