F#
I'm older but you're wiser than anyone can see
D#m
Your patient like no other has even been with me
F#
Your eyes take me to places
I'd never dreamt about
D#m                                         B
Your voice is the only music I can't do without
                    C#
There can't be any doubts now
       F#           C#/F             D#m
We're just too far ahead to look behind
      B        C#
And above the good and bad

Chorus:
F#
I need you to believe in my word
D#m
I feel like a broken record
B                 C#
And I've told you 700 times
B                     C#
I don't need to keep looking
              F#
My search is done
F#
Can you put your trust in my word
D#m
I sound like a broken record
B                C#
And I've said it 700 times
B                     C#
I don't need to keep looking
            F#
You are the one

Your hands that have no mercy
Are also my best friends
And I can get lost climbing on
your legs that never end
I found a perfect distance between my body on you
And that is no distance,
dear if that's alright with you
They said we wouldn't make it
But look at how we've beaten all the odds
I just need you to be aware of that

Chorus:
I need you to believe in my word
I feel like a broken record
And I've told you 700 times
I don't need to keep looking
My search is done
Can you put your trust in my word?
I sound like a broken record
And I've told you 700 times
I don't need to keep looking
You are the one

D#m
I just want you to take a leap of faith
F#                                 B
No it's easy to make all the same mistakes
   A#m                 G#m           C#
But I won't this time, no, not this time

Chorus:
I need you to believe in my word
I sound like a broken record
And I've said it 700 times
I don't need to keep looking
You are the one

A dozen icy summers were leading me to you
I had to hear the liars to recognize the truth
Remember the first Christmas
It almost seemed untrue
You promised that you'd always be with me
And I promised too
