E5  E5                     C#5             A5
     The curtains are drawn now the fire warms the room
           A5      E5   B5                                 C#5
     Meanwhile, outside, wind from the north-east chills the air
                             F#5       D5  A5
     It will soon be snowing out there
          A5         E5  B5                                C#5
     And some, there are, cold they prepare for a sleepless night
                              F#5        D5  A5
     Maybe this will be their last fight
               C#5                      A5              C#5                   A5
     But we're safe in each other's embrace, all fears go as I look on your face


              D5      E5      B5            D5     A5
     Better think awhile or I may never think again
                       D5                G5             G5
     If this were the last day of your life my friend
  F#5                                     B5
     Tell me what do you think you would do then


       E5                 A5
     Stand up to the blow     that fate has struck upon you
      E5                  A5
     Make the most of all     you still have coming to you
     F#5              F#5  B5
     Lay down on the ground  and let the tears run from you
     C#5             A5                  B5
     Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees


      E5               A5
     Let me live again     let life come find me wanting
        E5                    A5
     Spring must strike again     against the shield of winter
     F#5              F#5  B5
     Let me feel once more   the arms of love surround me
     C#5             A5               G#5             G#5          C#5
     Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again


     E5  E5                C#5             A5
     Laughter and music and perfume linger here
           A5       E5    B5                                 C#5
     And there, and there, wine flows from flask to glass and mouth
                             F#5        D5  A5
     As it soothes confusing our doubts
          A5      E5  B5                      C#5
     And soon, we feel, why do a single thing today
                              F#5      D5  A5
     There's tomorrow sure as I'm here
            C#5                   A5         C#5                 A5
     So the days they turn into years, and still no tomorrow appears


              D5      E5      B5            D5     A5
     Better think awhile or I may never think again
                       D5                G5             G5
     If this were the last day of your life my friend
  F#5                                     B5
     Tell me what do you think you would do then


       E5                 A5

     F#5              F#5  B5
     Lay down on the ground  and let the tears run from you
     C#5             A5                  B5
     Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees


      E5               A5
     Let me live again     let life come find me wanting
        E5                    A5
     Spring must strike again     against the shield of winter
     F#5              F#5  B5
     Let me feel once more   the arms of love surround me

     Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again
