Turning Page

I've waited a (Ebmaj7)hundred (Eb)years, but I'd wait a million more for (Abmaj13)you.

(Eb)Nothing (Ebmaj7)prepared me for (Eb)what the (Ebmaj7)priv'lege of being yours would do.

(Bb)If I had (Cm7)only felt the warmth within your touch;

(Bb)if I had (Cm7)only seen how you (Ab)smile when you blush,

(Bb)or how you (Cm9)curl your lip when you concentrate enough,

well, I would have known what I was living for all along,

what I've (Gm)been living (Eb)for.

Your love is my turning page,

where only the sweetest words (Abmaj9)remain.

(Eb)Ev'ry kiss is a (Gm)cursive line,

(Cm7)ev'ry touch is a (Gm)redefined phrase.

(Bb7)I (Cm7)surrender who I've been for who you (Eb)are,

(Bb7)for nothing makes me stronger than (Abmaj13)your fragile (Eb)heart.

(Bb7)If I had only felt how it feels to be yours,

well, I would have known what I've been living for all along,

(Bb7)what I've been living for.

(Abmaj13)Though we're tethered (Bb)to the story we must tell,

when I saw you, well, I knew we'd tell it well.

(Abmaj13)With a whisper we will tame the vicious seas.

Like a feather, bringing kingdoms to their (Eb)knees.
