1                       2 
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
1                        2
Leading you down into my core, where I've become so numb

  Without a soul,

Until you find it there, and lead it back home

Frozen inside without your touch, 
             E5 
without your love. Darling,

 Only you are the life among the dead...

 E5              
(All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see 

Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me.) 
E/C5
I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems 

got to open my eyes to everything. 
E5
(Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul... 

Don't let me die here.  
                        E/C5  
There must be something more

Bring me to life.
