Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]My love waits for you
There's nothing [Cm]I can do
So [G]I'm holding back
Afraid when I [C]can't save it all
[Adim]This love I [Cm]know

[Verse 2]
[G]I'm saving it, you've got to keep
[C]I'm saving [Cm]it, your love to me
[G]A sentimental love tonight to me
Every time [Cm]it is when you love
[G]somebody

[Verse 3]
No [C]tears, [Cm]no signs
Only [G]makes it so much
harder to [C]go [Cm]on[G]
Just take good [C]care[Cm]
And re[G]member when you're
feeling all [C]alone[Cm]

[Verse 4]
[C]You'll be with me in [B]my heart
[Em]And always on my m[Am]ind[Adim]

[G]we'[C]re, our two[G][Cm]
And I [G]felt that I've known
you for so [Cm]long
[G]One thi[C]ng, I kne[Cm]w
It was [G]lovin' that would
last on and [C]on[Cm]

[Verse 8]
[C]Even with the be[B]st of plans
The [Em]world gets in the [Asus4]way[Adim]
[Am]Don't be down[G]hearted
[C]I'll soon be [Dsus4]back to stay[D]

[Verse 9]
[E]When you lov[C#m]e somebody
[A]Who makes you fee[G]l so gla[C]d

[A]Never to be [D]unt[C]rue
[Bm]Until we'r[Em]e together[F][G][Dm]

[Verse 11]
[Cm]And I would be a foo[F]l to
[Bm]throw away my [Em]chances
[Asus4]The best shot that I ev[Dsus4]er had[G]

[Verse 12]
And [Cm]all that we [F]could have
[Bm]One of those rom[Em]ances
