Away From You

Cdim7  C
Away from you
  Dm7   G
There is no music,
   C7       F
There is no sunlight,
  Dm G      Cmaj9
The world is gray.
Cdim7  C
Away from you
  Dm7   G
The clocks are frozen,
   C7       F
And time's a traveller
Dm7   G7      C
Who's lost his way.

[Refrain]

   F
The people I meet
    Gm
Might as well be statues,
   Bb
The words we exchange
         C
Might as well be Greek.
    F
The room that I'm in
         G7  Em
May be bright and cheerful
   Am     D            G
But to me it's dim and bleak.

[Verse 2]

Cdim7  C
I'm half alive
Dm7   G
Until the moment
   C7       F
The door swings open
Dm G      Cmaj9
And you walk through.
  F
Now my world starts to glow

   G
Like a stained-glass window
    Am
And what was old and cold
   G
Is warm and new.
 Cdim7  C
And so you see
   F  G   Am
Why I can never be
   D  F   G       C
Away from you.

[Verse 3]

Cdim7  C
Away from you
Dm7   G
The world is lifeless
C7       F
As though creation
Dm G      Cmaj9
Has gone awry.
Cdim7  C
The trees are bare,
Dm7   G
There are no flowers,
C7       F
The fields are thirsty,
Dm7   G7      C
The streams are dry.

[Refrain]

   F
We live, you and I,
 Gm
For a breath of sunlight,
       Bb
So brief an escape
      C
From a world of gray.
   F
Our moments of warmth
                    G7      Em
Have been touch and go, love,
   Am                D         G
But tonight, we'll touch and stay.

[Refrain]

F
The people I meet
Gm
Might as well be statues,
       Bb
The words we exchange
      C
Might as well be Greek.
   F
The room that I'm in
G7      Em
May be bright and cheerful
   Am                D         G
But to me it's dim and bleak.

[Verse 4]

Cdim7  C
I'm half alive
Dm7   G
Until the moment
C7       F
The door swings open
Dm G      Cmaj9
And you walk through.
   F
Now my soul is afloat
  G
On a wave of music
       Am
That I could feel such joy
   G
I never knew.
Cdim7  C
And so you see
   F   G    Am
Why I can never be
   D    F    G      C
Away from you.
