A E A
Sometimes I recall what others have said
D A
Love is for lovers in love and full grown,
D E
Life's for the living and death's for the dead,
D A E A
And the depth of a heart is a fathom unknown.
A E A
Sometimes when I get to thinking about you,
D A
And all the things that we've never said
D E
To each other, it seems such a shame to go blue
D A E A
When there's so many years to lie silent and dead.
A E A
I know, you know, all about life.
D A
You know, I know, nothing at all.
D E
Still why should I know daily strife
D A E A
When the touch of your hand makes me glad I'm so small.
A E A
Time brings us trouble as days come and go.
D A
I know, you know I'll understand.
D E
Could you, would you suffer a woe,
D A E A
When a blink of your eye and I'm at your command.
D A D
Think of the years before we were a pair,
G D
Years lived apart we spent learning to farm.
G Bm A
Sowing, growing and learning to care
Bm D A D E
For ourselves, and preparing for each other's arms.
A E A
Love is a flower, blooms when we're too young;
D A
Pluck it, it's gone, tended it grows.
D E
We've been tending since the first sprout was sprung
D A E A
To the most patient farmer, the best harvest goes.
A E A
Sometimes I recall what others have said
D A
Love is for lovers in love and full grown,
D E
Life's for the living and death's for the dead,
D A E A A E A
And the depth of a heart is a fathom unknown.
