[D]Hey! It’s wonderful to see you once again
To see your smile and hear you call my name, there is [A7]so much to [Em]say
[Em]Hey! It isn’t accidental that we met
Your love is something that I [A7]can’t forget, so I wander your [D]way


[D]Hey! If one of us won’t try to dry the tears
Tomorrow is the world of yester years, let us [A7]live for to- [Em]day
[Em]Hey! Although we played a game of love and lost
I wouldn’t change a single [A7]dream because, if you loose you [D]must pay


It’s [G]true I’ve have so many others [D]loves to share
But I will close my eyes and [Em]you’ll be there, no [A7]matter where I go, you’re [D]everywhere
Er [A7]er, er [D]er, if [G]you, come back to me and see how [D]much I care
I only want to live if you are [Em]there, to [G]give your love to [A7]me


[D]Hey! Don’t let me spend another day alone
Remember all the happiness we’ve known, let’s [A7]relive yester[Em]day
[Em]Hey! We’ve known a world of loneliness and pain
We’ll never make the same [A7]mistakes again, may if only you’ll [D]stay


It’s [G]true I’ve have so many others [D]loves to share
But I will close my eyes and [Em]you’ll be there, no [A7]matter where I go, you’re [D]everywhere


Er [A7]er, er [D]er, if [G]you, come back to me and see how [D]much I care
I only want to live if you are [Em]there, to [G]be with you l’d travel every [A7]where
Er [A7]er, er [D]er, it’s [G]true I’ve have so many others [D]loves to share
But I will close my eyes and [Em]you’ll be there, no [A7]matter where I go, you’re [D]everywhere
