C C7 F
When I-I stop dreaming
C G C G7
That's when I'll stop loving you
[Verse 1]
C
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
G F C
The first time I ever wanted to die
C C7 F
Was the night when you told me you loved someone else
C G
And you asked me if I could for-get
[Chorus]
C C7 F
When I-I stop dreaming
C G C G7
That's when I'll stop wanting you
[Instrumental]
C C7 F C G C C G7
[Verse 2]
C
I'd be like a flower unwanted in spring
G F C
Alone, neglected, trans-planted in vain
C C7 F
In your garden of sadness where it's petals would fall
C G
In the shadows of undying pain
[Chorus]
C C7 F
When I-I stop dreaming
C G C G7
That's when I'll stop thinking of you
[Instrumental]
C C7 F C G C C G7
[Verse]
C
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
G F C
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
C F
You can teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
C G
But you can't teach my heart to forget
[Chorus]
C C7 F
When I-I stop dreaming
C G C
That's when I'll stop crying for you
