You'll spend the end of your days 
Gently smiling like a newborn

G
Press your lips
To my eyes 
Taste my tears 
On your tongue, 
Pull the blinds 
Play our song 
Nothings changed 
Nothing could be wrong. 


D             G
Scream in the night 
A
Kick and strike 
Em
Like a newborn 
Em
Holding me shaking 
Em
Awake in the dark 
D            G
All of these promises 
A
Kept and unbroken 
Em
Tracing the scars 
Em
Tracing the scars
D        G
Even and cold 
A                 D
As we both become older.
Em
Your arms bound about me 
Em
The hush in your voice. 
D                  G
The warmth of your fingers 
A               Em
Entwined around mine 
Em
In the eve of our lives 
Em
Never a choice.
