Lately I have had this strangest feeling, With no vivid reasons here to find.
Lately I've been staring in the mirror, very slowly picking me apart.
Ab9
|----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----|
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging, round my mind...
Tryin' to tell myself I have no reason, with your heart.
EbmMaj7 C#maj7
|----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----|
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume, With you say, "No special place to go"
Just the other night while you were sleeping, I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name.
Ab9
|----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----|
But when I ask will you be coming back soon, You don't know, never know
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping, you just say, nothing's changed.
EbmMaj7 C#9
|----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----+----=----=----=----|
