Recorded on MERCURY Records in 1967. DNC.

No idea why E.B.'s version didn't hit..it
should have.)

A#m G#
The sound of your footsteps, telling me that you're near,

your soft gentle motion, baby, brings out the need in mes-

that no one can hear, except..
CHORUS:
G# D#
In my midnight confessions..
A#m D#
when I tell all the world that I love you.
G# D#
In my midnight confessions,
A#m D#
when I say all the things that I want to..
(I love you.)
BRIDGE:
F# C# G#
But a little gold ring you wear on your hand
D#
makes me understand.

There's another before me, you'll never be mine,
F
I'm wasting my time.
