   I thought that dreams belonged to other men 

     C#              Ab/C 
'Cuz each time I got close 

       Ab/Bb  Bb9      C#/Eb  Eb7 
They'd fall apart again 

Ab9  Ab    Eb/G                Fm7     Eb 
  I feared my heart would beat in secrecy 

  C#                 Ab/C 
I faced the nights alone 
  
    C#               Ab(add2)/C  Ab/C 
Oh, how could I have known 

     C#            Ab/C  Cm/F  Fm7

I swear that I can see forever in your eyes 

Ab4  Ab  F74  Fm7  Eb/C#  C#/Eb 
Pa...radise 


{Verse} 
It seems like perfect love's so hard to find 
I'd almost given up 
You must've read my mind 
And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day 
They're finally comin' true 
I'll share them all with you 
'Now we hold the future in our hands 


{Bridge} 
C#/Ab  Ab  E                              C# 
             And in your arms salvation's not so far away 

E                      C#          Eb7 
  It's getting closer, closer every day
