If you wait for me
Then I'll come for you
Although I've travelled far
Cm Dmaj7 D E7 A -- repeat intro chords twice
I always hold a place for you in my heart
(repeat verse chords)
If you think of me
If you miss me once in a while
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace,
I'll find my way back to you
Dmaj7 E E7 A -- repeat intro as before
If you'd be waiting
If you dream of me
Like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart
Oh I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are
REPEAT CHORUS
I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are
LAST CHORUS:
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace,
I'll find my way back to you
Please say you'll be waiting
FINALE:
Together again, it would feel so good to be
In your arms Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise If it's one that you can keep
I vow to come for you If you wait for me
And say you'll hold
A place for me in your heart
