Arrow (Cheryl Wheeler) Melanie Safka
Intro: Am C D G
Am C D
I wish I could fall in love
G C
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does.
Am D
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D G
In love, in love.
Am C D
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
G C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes,
Am D
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
Em D G
In windless skies.
G D Em A D
Oh, I remember you in the TV light
Am G D
Holding you close to me where we lay,
D Em A D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
Am G Am D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.

Am C D
It was only last night in the winter dark
G C
I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence,
Am D
And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since
Em D G
Or a truer heart.
Am C D
But maybe these dreams are leading me;
G C
Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory;
Am D
Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasies
Em C D
Are the greatest part
G D Em A D
Oh, I remember you in the TV light
Am G D
Holding you close to me where we lay,
D Em A D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
Am G Am D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.
Am C D

In love in love...
