Verse 1

Fmaj7 
What started as a whisper
C 
G 
Slowly turned in to a scream
Am7 
Fmaj7 
Searching for an answer
C

Where the question is unseen
Am7 
Fmaj7 
I don't know where you came from
C 
G 
And I don't know where you've gone
Am7 
Fmaj7 
Old friends become old strangers
C 
G 
Between darkness and the dawn

I     still hear you saying

And   is sweetest,

is sweetest when at a glance"

But I     live

I live a hundred, hundred lifetimes in a day

But I     die a little

In every breath I take
