D
I gathered a mountain
             G
an ocean of teardrops
             Em
A castle of break ups
           A
To hide myself in

I've waited a lifetime
For someone to find me
For someone to reach me
Somewhere to begin

Chorus:
          Bm  G       D
Now Im a woman I can tell by the look
         A
in your eyes
          Bm     G       D
Were no strangers I can tell by
                   A
the way that you smile

I've painted the sunsets
The dawnings I've missed you
The hours I've kissed you
To keep my heart alive

It's the heat of your breathing
The way you are whispering
The urge of your wanting
I can't leave you behind

Chorus

C                                       G  F
You bring a little hope bring a little love
You bring a little hope bring a little love

Chorus

                   A#
I dont want to own you
                    D#
I dont want to lead you
                     C
I just want to love you
           F
In my own way
