The Way You Are

             D       G        A      G
You're by my side whenever I need you
            D     G             A  G
The way you smile, the way you move
             D
Why should I try?

All through the night you take me on

When we unite, I know where I belong
            D    G              A    G
When winter rains I’ll be your friend

What we create may last until the end

Where mountains rise I stand by you
           D      G              A   G
My heart assigned like only lovers do
          D   G               A  G
If we're apart I'll cross the sea
                 D      G                A
Don't close your heart this love was always free
