D                      A
I am a man looking to a goddess
D                               A
Ignores by fate, corrupted by a temptress
    G                         Bm
The eyes that deceive are the ones I perceive
            D                E
Beneath the tangled cloaks I weave
        G                  A          E D
For the eyes that hurt the most are your own

G                  A
There's no time to waste in this world
G                  A
Children live only once
G               A
Sometimes realisation comes
G                      A
Too late for those who want for themselves...

D                               A
I am the night searching for an ember
D                                    A
She lights the way when I'm thinking of her
        G             A
There's nothing I can do
   G                A

G          A

G              Bm

    D              E

G              A           E  D
Drawing to her those who would stay

D                              A
She is the time passing with a moment
D                             A
Laughs aloud;dismisses with a movement
G                  Bm
All the times I've tried to speak
    D                  E
She responds without a word
G               A          E  D
When I turn her way she has turned
