I reach for you like I’d reach for a star,

Worshipping you from afar, [B+]

Living [G/F#]with my silent love.[A7+5]

I’m like a flame dying out in the rain,

Only the ashes remain,[B+]

Smouldering like my [A7/6] si – lent love.

How I long to tell all the things I have planned,

Still it’s wrong to [A7/9]tell, you would not understand.

You’ll go along never dream – ing I care,

Loving somebody somewhere,[B+]

Leaving me my [A7/6] si – lent love.
