F#
I'll go but I keep coming back
                                  E F#
I might be wrong that's where I'm at
F#
Under the covers in the black
                              E
Is our own world where we can act

A
Any way that we wanna
B                                C#
And where our love keeps pouring down

Chorus:
A
I know that it's the dawning
B                         C#
I fall in love each morning

When I wake up, you're in my eyes
Every day is a new surprise
With you, I don't wear a disguise
With you, I feel the perfect high

You are the one, the only
I was so sad and lonely, now

Chorus:
I know that it's the dawning
I fall in love each morning
I know that it's the dawning
I fall in love each morning, now
I know that it's the dawning
I fall in love each morning
I know that it's the dawning
I fall in love each morning
