> Somehow they stayed that way
> For those 5 days in May
> Made all the stars around them shine
> Funny how you can look in vain
> Living on nerves and such sweet pain
> The loneliness that cuts so fine
> To find the face you've seen a thousand times
>

> C
> Sometimes the world begins
> C
> To set you up on your feet again
> Bm                           D

> In everything I've done
>             Em
> You are the one
> 
> Looking back it's hard to tell
> Why they stood while others fell
> Spend your life working it out
> All I know is one cloudy day
> They both just ran away
> Rain on the windshield heading South
> She loved the lines around his mouth
>
