Verse 1: F C I opened my eyes last night, and saw you in the lowlight F Walking down by the bay, on the shore Am F G Staring up at the planes that aren't there anymore F C I was feeling the night, grow old, and you were looking so cold F Like an introvert, I drew my overshirt Am F G Around my arms and began to shiver violently before F C You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me F Running into the dark underground Am F G All the subways around create a great sound F C To my motion fatigue farewell With your ear to a seashell F You can hear the waves in underwater caves Am F G C (standard) As if you actually were inside a saltwater room Chorus: G Am F C Time together is just never quite enough G Am C F When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home G Am F C What will it take to make or break this hint of love? G Am C F We need time, only time G Am F C When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? G Am C F If this is what I call home, I've never felt so alone G Am F C So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? G Am C F All the time, all the time Verse 2: F C Can you believe that the crew has gone, and wouldn't let me sign on? F Am F G All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep F C I feel as if I were home some nights, when we count all the ship lights F I guess I'll never know, why sparrows love the snow Am F G C (standard) Well, turn off all of the lights, and set this ballroom aglow G Am F C So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? G Am C F All the time Chorus: G Am F C Time together is just never quite enough G Am C F When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home G Am F C What will it take to make or break this hint of love? G Am C F We need time, only time G Am F C When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? G Am C F If this is what I call home, I've never felt so alone G Am F C So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? G Am C F All the time, all the time Outro: F Time together is just never quite enough C When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? F What will it take to make or break this hint of love? Am F G So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? F All the time This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
