F#m                          Em
Leaves are falling from the tree
F#                    Em
More than anything I want to be
A                          D
Close to you back in your arms
                     Dm
I swear I'm still in love
                      Am
Don't say a word just wait
       Cm                                   Gm
As the bell will ring across the street we know
Bm                    F
Those memories never go

Leaves are falling from the sky
Why don't we give it just another try
When the winter comes along
The shadows will be gone
The ice will melt away
'Cause in front of the old fireplace is warm
Oooh, welcome home

C                      G
Let me take you back again
                     Am
To a love has got a name
            G
For you and me
C                     G
Another day another chance
                        Am
Only love will kill the pain
               G
That hurts so deep
F                             G
Don't waste a moment of your life
 Dm          C      Bm Am G
'cause it's just a kiss    of borrowed time

Let me take you back again
To a love that's got a name
For you and me
Another day another chance
Only love will kill the pain
That hurts so deep
And we taste that wine
Just another sip of borrowed time
