Mornin’ came and the feelings washed over again.

The pain of longing was still in his heart from when, 

Em 
He would remember those nights and those days when they 
C 
would laugh and cry about nothing and why 
A2 
not spend eternity as just friends.

Em 
(That) summer wound down, he moved out of town and went on. 
C 
(How) He longed for her kiss and remembered her eyes like a song. 

Em 
Her smell would haunt him like a fresh morning breeze, 
C 
strong enough to bring a (grown) man to his knees. 
A2                                                          Em 
That woman’s touch could make a cold heart soar.
