G#
I can't live without you if the love is gone
                             Db
Everything is nothing if you got no one
            G#
And you did walk in the night
Db                         G#
Slowly losing sight of the real thing.

(Both)

    G#
But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
                            Db
Too deep in love and we got no way out
        G#
And the messages is clear
Db                            G#
This could be the year of the real thing.

(Dolly)

No more will you cry baby I will hurt you never.

We start and end as one in love forever

We can ride it together uh huh
                            Db G#
Making love with each other uh huh.

Sail away with me to another world
         G#               Db G#
And we rely on each other uh huh
         Db                  G#
From one lover to another uh huh.
