C
I’ve seen you treat love as a simple lark
Am
Caught up in moments of electric spark
C                                      F
Step inside just as you leave your mark
G
Defenseless

      F                 G
But sometimes when you look at me
           F                    G
In the darkness of your eyes, I see
                  C
What you really mean

C
Tell me lovers play a fickle game
Am
A broken heart's just another name
C                              F
For wounded pride in a war of lame
G
Pretenses


      F                         G
But sometimes when you look at me
           F                     G
In the darkness of your eyes, I see
                  C
What you really mean

F
One rule of love cannot be denied
C
You pay the toll and you take the ride
Am
You give it all or else you haven't tried
G
You don't play, halfway

C
Dreams not asked for I see right through you
Am
There's not much difference in the things that we do
C                                             F
I know you better than you want me to
G
But still

      F                     G
But sometimes when you look at me
           F                G
In the darkness of your eyes, I see
                  C
What you really mean

F
One rule of love cannot be denied
C
You pay the toll and you take the ride
Am
You give it all or else you haven't tried
G
You don't play, halfway

C
I know there's some things that you can't erase
Am
I shake my head as I watch you chase
C                                      F
From place to place, so as not to face
G
The chances

      F                      G
That sometimes when you look at me
           F                      G
In the darkness of my eyes, you see
                  C
What I really mean
