Intro: Am C D Gmaj7
Am C D
I wish I could fall in love
Gmaj7 C C/B
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does.
Am Am/G D
Still I’d fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D G
In love, in love.
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes,
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
In windless skies.
G D Em A7 D
Oh, I remember you in the TV light
Am G D
Holding you close to me where we lay,
D Em A7 D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
Am G Am D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.
It was only last night in the winter dark
I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence,
And I’ve never known a softer warmer feeling since
Or a truer heart.
But maybe these dreams are leading me;
Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory;
Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasies
Or the greatest heart.
Oh, but I remember you in the TV light
Holding you close to me where we lay,
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.
I Wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes,
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
In windless skies.
Oh, I wish I could fall in love
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does.
Still I’d fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
In love.
