	  		G6    Gº  
In my loneliness,
            G6
When you're gone and I'm all by myself,
    Bm7                E7/9-
And I need your caress
Am7    Cm6
I just think of you,
        Bm7                       E7/9-
And the thought of you holding me near,
         Am7                 D7/9
Makes my loneliness soon disappear
G6            Gº  
Though you're far away,
       G6
I have only to close my eyes,
    Bm7                 E7/9-
And you are back to stay
Am7    Cm6
I just close my eyes,
        Bm7                      E7/9-
And the sadness that missing you brings
        Am7                         D7/9
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Cmaj7  Cm6
Yes I  love you so,
    Bm7            E7/9-         Am7   F#7/5+
And that for me is all I need to know
G6     Gº  
I will wait for you,
        G6
Til the sun falls from out of the sky,
    Bm7                E7/9-
For what else can I do
Am7    Cm6
I will wait for you
    Bm7         E7/9-           Am7
Meditating, how sweet life will be,
         Aº           G6
When you come back to me
