for several days the visitors were here
C D
we saw them turn down and we watched them disappear
G A
talked about the days they said were sure to come
C D
had a hard time believing

G A
i remember seeing you, my tongue struck dumb
C D
when you first came here from wherever it was you came from
G A
the power in your voice, your rough touch
C D
you keeping care of me, keeping watch
Em
open up
A
the doors to the tent
C D
wonder where the good times went
G F
i will do what you ask me to do
Em C
because of how i feel about you

G A
i saw his little face contract as his eyes met light
C D
try to imagine anything so bright
G A
you only see it once and it sails under the dawn
C D
and then it’s gone forever
G A
for several hours we lay there, last ones of our kind
C D
harder days coming maybe, i don’t mind
G A
it sounds kind of dumb when i say it but it’s true
C D
i would do anything for you
Em
open up
A
the promise of the day
C D
drive the dark things away
G F
i will do what you ask me to do
Em C
because of how i feel about you
