D DMaj7 D7 (Hold)
G D/F#
Oh dear out here,
G7 C
Everybody stumbles on fear.
Cm G
Who cares if we’re scared?
D B7
Everyone is on their own.
Em C
It’s only you that my heart desires.
D G
Only you alone can know my pain.
Em C
All alone you were sitting there,
D B7
Folding pages for your paper chain.
C C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),
C C#dim
So when it all unfolds (so when it all unfolds),
C C#dim
We’ll be holding hands and go on,
D B7
Together you and I forever.

Catching up to me in old ways.

Only you alone can break my fall.

I pace the floor and I wish for more,

While you were dreaming with your paper dolls.
C C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),
C C#dim
Forever say goodbye (forever say goodbye),

Or well be holding hands and go on,

Together you and I forever.

Everybody stumbles on fear.
