Em Am C Bm
Remember that night, white steps in the moonlight
Em Am C
They walked here too through empty playground, this
D B7
ghost’s town.
Em Am C Bm
Children again on rusting swings getting higher
Em Am C D B7
Sharing a dream, on an island, it felt right.
Em Bm Dm Am
We lay side by side between the moon and the tide
Cm Gm A
Mapping the stars for a while.
G
Let the night surround you, we’re halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow, let it go, feel her warmth beside you.

Additional lyrics:
Remember that night, the warmth and the laughter
Candles burned, though the church was deserted
At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbour
Dreamers may leave, but they’re here ever after.
Let the night surround you, we’re halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow, let it go, feel her warmth beside you.
Em Am C
