  C                            Fmaj7/A
I saw you today, or at least I think it was
 
     C                      Fmaj7/A
It's hard to say, we've all changed so much
 
   Am                    G
Compelled to look, but I hid my face
 
     Fmaj7/A             C          G
It's hard to trace these feelings

C                          Fmaj7/A
Slender bride, your beauty shines from you
 
       C                          Fmaj7/A
And forever more, I'll be on your side for sure
 
  Am                              G
A light in your life, that always burns for you
 
   Fmaj7/A            C        G
As time passes.... so quickly.

    C                       Fmaj7/A
The final stage, we've both reached some way
 
      C                             Fmaj7/A
As we board our trains to different stations
 
        Am                     G
And the parts we play, and the things we say,
 
      Fmaj7/A        C         G
Words on the way, to discovery
 
 
  C                   Fmaj7/A            C                 Fmaj7/A
