Verse:
Gm                Ab
Yes my love, I confess to you
Gm                           Ab
I am only here to break your heart in two
Bb                  Ab
The very flower you chose that day
Bb                Ab
Its only task was to decay
Cm
You see?


Gm                        Ab
When I watched your first bathing
Gm                       Ab
I only warned you with a lowered voice
Bb                     Ab
"Be wary of my river's undertow
Bb                           Ab
It flows with water from the coldest source"

Did you hear?

Chorus:

And then I made sure
F                  Eb
You would always return
F
You still know of dawn
F                Eb
But you always return

Verse:
Gm                 Ab
When you hid under my black wings
Gm                                    Ab
They couldn't have protected you from anything
Bb                        Ab
Once in flight they would have let go
Bb                              Ab
You would have once again wound up below
Cm
Only broken

Gm                             Ab
Indeed, it's wrong to keep you near me
Gm                            Ab
One could call me cruel and deceiving
Bb                          Ab
But in your sacred air I am full of light
Bb                       Ab
Your loving arms are the true delight
Cm                Gm
To which I'm lost

Chorus:
F
And you've noticed it
F                        Eb
There is something right here
F
You have come to love, yes you've come to love
F                    G
What you always will fear

Outro:
Gm                 Ab
Yes, my love, I confess to you
Gm                                       Ab
I've nothing but the means to break your heart in two
Bb                          Ab
My part in yours may seem important now
Bb                            Ab
But with every spring it will seem so small
Gm             Ab
Just for now I am your fall
  Gm
I am your fall
  Ab
I am your fall
