Now it begins..now that you're gone.
A                 Bb
Needles and pins..twilight til dawn.
A             Gb    Bm        D
Watching that clock til you return.

Hiding that torch and watching it

burn.

A          Dbm  Gbm   Bm       
Waiting to hear.......footsteps

 that say..

love will appear and this time to 
 E
stay.

But if you don't, come back
