There’s a [D]kind of hush [F#]All over the [Bm]world to[D]night
All over the [G]world you can hear the [A]sounds of lovers in [D]love
You know what I [A]mean


Just the [D]two of us [F#]and nobody [Bm]else in [D]sight
There’s nobody [G]else and I’m feeling [A]good just holding you [D]tight


So [G]listen very [Em]carefully
Get [F#]closer now and [Em]you will see what I [A]mean
It isn’t a [A]dream
