[verse: 1]
|G#m                  |            |
 The sound of your footsteps
|F#                    |            |
 Telling me that you're near
|A#m                |              |
 Your soft gentle motion, babe
|D#m                            |C#                      |
 Brings out the need in me that nobody can hear, except
 
[chorus: 1]
|F#             |C#             |              
 In my midnight confessions
|G#m                 |C#                   |
 When I tell all the world that I love you
|F#             |C#          |
 In my midnight confessions
|G#m                |C#                  | {horns}    |
 When I say all the things that I want to
            |
I love you

 But a little gold ring you wear on your hand makes me understand
|E                 |B                       |F#
 There's another before me, you'll never be mine
                |D#       |D#      |
 I'm wasting my time

[verse: 2]
|G#m                      |              |
 Staggering through the daytime
|F#                 |                |
 Your image on my mind
|A#m                      |             |
 Passing so close beside you babe
|D#m                           |C#               |
 Sometimes the feelings are so hard to hide, but
