                   G     
I drifted into the notion
F                         C 
That you were looking for me
                   G       
I told myself that devotion
F                             C 
Would flow from your heart to me
Am                    Em       
■  When I looked into your eyes
Am                        G  
Still no reflection did I see
C                       G           
■ Of love light glowing within there
F                          C 
■ That I hoped there would be

F                         C
