[Verse]
[G#] I can't live without you if the love is gone
Everything is nothing if you got no one
And you did [C#] walk in the night
[C#] Slowly losing sight of the [G#] real thing.
(Both)
But [G#] that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the [C#] messages is clear
[C#] This could be the year of the [G#] real thing.
(Dolly)
[G#] No more will you [C#maj7] cry baby
I will hurt you [C#] never.

Making love with each other [C#] uh [G#] huh.
