you're a long walk, in a rainstorm
                            
you're a cut that refuses to heal

    x2

                             
you're dull ache, that i can't shake
you're a cold that's clogging up my head
or a broke watch, keeping time still
til you pull me in, pull me in, and i can't fight, yeah


(chorus)
                
if the night is cold
                 
and you're feeling old
                                       
and the morning cuts you like a knife
                    
and you're wearing thin
                   
feel you're giving in
                                     
in the darkest hour of the night, you find daylight

you're a stalled car in the desert
you're a song I can't get off my mind
in a dire strait with no help at all in sight
you come rushing in, rushing in
with a lifeline, yeah

(chorus)

(bridge)

                
pull me closer to your breast 
                                              
i need you finally i confess... i'm drifting, i'm drifting
             
i love you but i hate you too
                                                
god only knows what i could do...i'm drifting, i'm drifting

        
come on, give me one reason
           
come on, find me in daylight

(chorus)

i'm not 100% sure about the bridge, but the rest of the song is just how kevin griffin
played it at the virgin megastore show. i'll update the tab if i find out definatively
how to play the bridge or if i can find out what jim payne plays in the background.
until then, have fun playing the chorus over and over again :)
