For your morning bath but I’d not thought, I
C Am
Hate to hear you talk that way
C Am G D Em D

Trying to break through into the present

And I won’t be the first to shout it’s over

I used to wanna plant bombs at the last night of the proms

Then I met you, you pulled the curtain

The sun came up, the trees began to sing and
C Am G D Em D
Light shone in on everything, I love you
C Am
The sun came up, the trees began to sing and
C Am G D Em D
Light shone in on everything, I love you
