Strum
D-DU-UDU
The first star I see
May not be a star.
We can't do a thing but wait,
So let's wait for one more.
x 2
And the time, such clumsy time
In deciding if it's time.
I'm careful but not sure how it goes.
You can loose yourself in your courage.
When the time we have now ends,
When the big hand goes round again,
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
x 2
And the mindless comfort grows
When I'm alone with my 'great' plans.
And this is what she says gets her through it:
"If I don't let myself be happy now, then when?"
If not now, when?
(When) the time we have now ends,
When the big hand goes round again,
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
x 4
I close my eyes and believe
Wherever you are, an angel for me.
(When) the time we have now ends,
When the big hand goes round again,
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
(When the time we have now ends)*
(*): This is the background voice, repeated in the whole last chorus, but I just wrote it once.
Hope you like it!
