 you're a long  walk,  in a rainstorm
 you're a cut  that  refuses  to heal
 x2
 you're dull  ache,  that i  can't shake
 you're a cold that's clogging up my head
 or a broke watch, keeping time still
 til you pull me in, pull me in, and i can't fight, yeah
 (chorus)
 if the night  is cold
 and you're feeling  old
 and the morning  cuts you  like a knife
 and you're wearing  thin
 feel you're giving  in
 in the darkest  hour  of the night,  you find  daylight
 you're a stalled car in the desert
 you're a song I can't get off my mind
 in a dire strait with no help at all in sight
 you come rushing in, rushing in
 with a lifeline, yeah
 (chorus)
 (bridge)
pull  me closer to your  breast
i  need you finally i confess...  i'm drifting,  i'm drifting
i  love you but i  hate you too
god  only knows what i  could do...i'm drifting,  i'm drifting
come  on, give  me one reason
come  on, find  me in daylight
 (chorus)
 i'm not 100% sure about the bridge, but the rest of the song is just how kevin griffin
 played it at the virgin megastore show. i'll update the tab if i find out definatively
 how to play the bridge or if i can find out what jim payne plays in the background.
 until then, have fun playing the chorus over and over again :)
