what a difference a day makes
silence so delicious on days like these
and by the time that my resolve breaks
i’ve already found the beauty down on my knees
you know i want to be something
i never want to be someone new
some people telling me one thing
but i know if i fall i’ll hold on to you

there must have been an angel inside my room
there must have been a smile somewhere in your star tattoo
so twinkle twinkle in your eyes the way it should
there must have been an angel there inside my room

i’ve got the strength for believing
life is so contagious in times like these
you might say it’s the season
and lift me up if i ask you please
i got a heart for intentions
don’t always know where i’m gonna go
lead you a different direction
i can change your life if you let me grow

Repeat Chorus

Verse:
wake up in the middle of the night
the air is so heavy my head’s screwed on too tight
and in the glow of the christmas lights i watch you sleep
the hands on the cigarette clock are just
time ticking away this love i’ve got
there’s no way to make it stop before you wake

Chorus:
i know you’re leaving me
this is not the way that i was brought up to believe that it would be
i know you’re leaving me
i’m running round in circles trying to figure out
just who i’m supposed to be

Verse:
we go down to prospect park
to watch the light become the dark
and i don’t think i’ve ever been this scared
outside as the yellow moon rises
i know this time it won’t surprise us
but that don’t mean that i will be prepared

Chorus

Bridge:
i’m so tired of writing sad songs
but my mind’s on misery
and i know there’s time until you’re gone
but i can’t let it be
i can’t let it be

Interlude:
fingerpick the following chords twice:
F (starting on 4th string)
F (starting on 5th string)

Chorus

Outro:
