 In the dark, you live your life,
Eb                Bb7
 In the dark, you cheat and lie.
Eb                        Ab       Eb

 People tell me love, love is true,
Eb                         Bb7
 People tell me love, what love can do.
Eb                           Ab       Eb
 You keep on telling me love and then sleep,
       Ab              Eb        Bb7     Eb
That's when you try to turn your back on me.

Good God, I keep on loving no one but you.
  Eb                            Ab        Eb
I wonder where you go, I wonder where you are,

And I know one day soon you'll wanna, (break my heart).
