Dm
Lips are turning blue
  A#
A kiss that can't renew
  E
I only dream of you
    A
My beautiful

Tiptoe to your room
A starlight in the gloom
I only dream of you
And you never knew

Chorus:
C            Gm              C
Sing for absolution, I will be Singing
              Gm
Falling from your grace, oooh.

There's nowhere left to hide
In no one to confide
The truth burns deep inside
And will never die

Lips are turning blue
A kiss that can't renew
I only dream of you
My beautiful

Chorus - x2

Our wrongs remain unrectified
And our souls won't be exhumed
