C#m                             A               G#
White sheets, I can’t believe I’m still asleep, still beneath
C#m                             A               G#      E2
He’s come to rest, head and heart, he’s on my chest, he falls so hard
C#m                             A               E       G#
I’m crushed-it’s what I asked for: some kind of weight to hold me down
C#m                             A               E       G#     
I’m lost-I’m in his mouth, cradled by his sounds…

C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh
C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh

C#m                             A               G#
Soft light, a perfect dawn, a moment held a moment gone
C#m                             A               G#      E2
And all day this will be my secret place where I can taste him
C#m                             A               E       G#
Long gone, it’s what I asked for: some kind of space to float around and
C#m                             A               E       G#        G
Eyes wide, I am awake now, cursed by the freedom that I’ve found

E          B          A          F#m
I’ll come when you least expect it,
E          B          A          F#m
Close your eyes you won’t regret this
E          B          A          F#m     C#m
Love comes when you least expect it…

C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh
C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh

C#m                             A               G#
Warm night, a silent breeze, and I’m up against the wall
C#m                             A               G#      E2
Strong hands and hips to hold me, still I’m afraid that I will fall
C#m                             A               E       G#
I’m crushed-it’s what I asked for: some kind of weight to hold me down
C#m                             A               E       G#        G
Eyes wide, I am awake now, cursed by the freedom that I’ve found

E          B          A          F#m
I’ll come when you least expect it,
E          B          A          F#m
Close your eyes you won’t regret this
E          B          A          F#m     C#m 
Love comes when you least expect it…

C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh
C#m                             A               E       G# 
Aaah                            aaah            ooooh
