Dm F       C                Dm
I've been down this road before
Now I'm coming back for more
This is like a déjà vu
I was born to be with you

Into the night we went to sleep
You and I were meant for keeps
Into the night we went to play
You and I

Chorus:
C         Dm                 A#       Am
I really hope you'll always be so in love with me
C         Dm                 A#       Am
I really hope we'll always stay so attached this way
C         Dm                 A#       Am
I really hope you'll always be so in love with me
C         Dm                 A#       Am
I really hope we'll always stay so attached this way

So beware of the pitfall
We don't have to change at all
And our light will not burn out
It's what freedom's all about

Into the night we'll go to sleep
You and I were meant for keeps
Into the night we'll go to play
You and I

Chorus - x2

I really hope that you'll always be here
I really hope that you'll always be near
Take me and break me, I'll always be here
I really hope that we'll always be near
