G           D               A           D
I'm lonely today, won't you come out to play
C                         D
When I'm with you all the world goes away
G                   D          A       D
Your smile and your eyes, they keep me alive
C                         D
Your voice is a bell that massages my mind
                E
And it makes me wonder
                D
And it makes me sad
                E
And it makes me nervous
                D
And it makes me oh so mad
C                            G
Because I think about you every night and day
A                                    E
And when I could have asked I let it slip away
C                            G
I've got to get to know you, but I'm so afraid
             F            C             D
Well it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way
B  D                  B  D  B  D
  Be in love this way
G             D              A                D
Oh talk to me please, you've brought me to my knees
C                       D
Only your words melt my twenty year freeze
G                 D          A             D
I've known you so long, I've known you all along
C                                    D
But suddenly my thoughts of you have been so strong

C                                 G
Because I wonder if I'm more than just a friend
A                                 E
Did I really see a fire - or just inside my head
C                                    G
Sometimes I know you just want me to go away
             F            C             D
Well it's so hard to be a friend and be in love this way
B  D                   B  D  B  D
  Be in love this way

G      D   A  D  C             D
Karen, may I     see your blue eyes
G      D   A  D  C          D
Karen, may I    tell you tonight
                 E
That it makes me wonder
