Cadd9
Heartbeats fast
           G 
Colors and promises 
          Em7
How to be brave 
          Dsus4     D/F# Cadd9
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall 
                 G
But watching you stand alone           
          Em7            Dsus4 G       Asus4/G
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow 
         Em7  D -once             
One step clo--ser 

G                    Dsus4   D/F#
I have died everyday waiting for you
Em7                     Dsus4  D/F# 
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you 
      Cadd9
For a thousand years 
                 G/F#     D/F# -once
I love you for a thousand more 


Cadd9....


Cadd9
Time stands still
          G
Beauty in all she is 
          Em7  
I will be brave
           Dsus4 G      Cadd9
I will not let anything take away 
                   G
What's standing in front of me 
      Em7
Every breath           
      Dsus4    G       Asus4/G
Every hour has come to this 
         Em7  D -once           
One step clo--ser
