Intro - , , , 


   Now it's the same as before

                                         
   And I'm alone again



   With no sorrow for myself

                                          
   And I'm blaming no one else



   And closing my eyes

                         
   And seeing you standing there


First solo:

, , , 



   Now it's the same as before

                                               
   You've touched me with your love



   And though you're in my heart

                                             
   We're still a world apart


   As now I'm back to the time


   Where I would search for a dream


   But no use to try anymore as before


   Someday I'll die, and maybe then I'll be with you

Second solo:

, , , ,


   So I'm closing my eyes

                                       
   To hear the people laugh



   For they're all aglow

                                      
   Not knowing where to go



   But is it asking too much

                             
   When the question is what to do


   With the life I'll have


   It seems I know nothing now

                          
   Except my love for you


   And the strength in my hands

                             
   To go on feeding your smile


A superb ballad from Peter Green. Let me know if you spot
any mistakes!
