Heartbeats fast
           G     
Colors and promises 
          Em7      
How to be brave 
            D/F#     G    C9
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall 
                   G
But watching you stand alone         
           Em7            D/F#  G      Am
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow 
Am        Em    D 
One step clo--ser 

G                    G              D/F#             
I have died everyday waiting for you
Em                              D    
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you 
       C9
For a thousand years 
                 D        
I love you for a thousand more

I will not let anything take away

What's standing in front of me
