Verse:
G#
Well I kept fantasizing your eyes were wide open
A#
and it made me long for little last night
C#
Yes it was frantic, it was young, it was sweet
G#
But a sweet worth every bite
G#
Now I'm not normally one to be greedy
A#
But I had to be greedy with you
C#
5 days, 6 days. the whole of the month
G#
wouldn't satisfy my only sweet tooth
G#
Well it can take many years to forge a friendship
A#
It can take a lifetime to get close
C#
But we took all the shortcuts,
used our hearts as a map
G#
and we still got closer than most

But to me it's something else

A#
and wish that every dream you have will come true

5 years, 6 years, the whole of your life

I'll be wishing for the riches for you
