Verse 1

That's all I wanted

Something special, something sacred

In your eyes
For just one moment

At your side

Understand me

Maybe this time is forever
[F]
Say it can be
[Bb]
That's all you wanted
[Ab]
Something special, someone sacred
[Bb]
In your life
Just for one moment
[Ab]
To be warm and naked
At my side
[Gb] [Ab]
Sometimes I think that you'll never
[Bb]
Understand me
[Gb] [Ab]
But something tells me together

We'd be happy
