   C    C/B      C/A  C/G       C    C/B     C/A  C/G         
If you  wait for me     then    I'll   come for you
  F      G    Am       G 
Although I've traveled far
  F  G   Am      F        G         C     C/B C/A C/G
I always hold a place for you in my heart
   
If you think of me, If you miss me once in awhile
Then I'll return to you                 
I'll return and fill that space in your heart

          Am
Remembering
     F 
Your touch
     G
Your kiss
     C    C/B C/A
Your warm embrace
     F       G   C    C/B C/A
I'll find my way back to  you
     F       G   C     C/B  C/A C/G     C  C/B C/A C/G
If you'll be waiting

If you dream of me like I dream of you 
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Chorus

Oh I've longed for you and I have desired 
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are 

Remembering 
Your touch 
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
                         C     C/B C/A C/G    Am
Please say you'll be waiting 

           F     G
Together again
          C       C/B    C/A
It would feel so good to be
         F    G
In your arms
       C       C/B    C/A
Where all my journeys end
                    F      G
If you can make a promise
         C       C/B    C/A       F               G
If it's one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
   F    G       C   C/B  C/A C/G C/E        F    G     Am
If you wait for me                     and say you'll hold
   F        G   (pause)           C   C/B  C/A C/G
A place for me          in your heart
                         C   C/B  C/A C/G
A place for me in your heart
A place for me in your heart
A place for me in your heart.
