i've heard great things, peter

when crossing your jet stream

in different galaxies..

C G/B Am G
but never to keep..
F G
never to keep..
C
and i won't confess that i waited,
Am
but i let the lamp burn
F
as the men masqueraded,
G
i hoped you'd return
C
with your feet on the ground,
Am
tell me all that you'd learned
F
'cause love's never lost
G
when perspective is earned
C
and you said you'd come and get me,
Am
but you were twenty-five
F
and the shelf life of those
G
fantasies has expired
C
lost to the "lost boys"
Am
chapter of your life
F
forgive me, peter,
G
please know that i tried
Am
to hold on (hold on)
G
to the days (to the days)
F
when you were mine..
Am G
but the woman who sits by the window
F Dm
has turned out the light..
