verse 1 

    G              C         G    Em 
You bloomed like the rose of summer 
     C          Am     D 
And I held you in my arms  
    G               C       G     Em 
And in that knowing I found purpose  
    C            D   Dsus4 
We walked on the stars 
    G               C     G   Em 
The world changes, we get older  
       C                Am       D 
What comes in love must leave in pain 
     G            C        G      Em 
And all the gifts we early treasure 
    C            G  Dsus4   G  
The world takes away.

  C          D    Dsus4 
The years we shared  
  G                          Em 
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere 
  C                            D  Dsus4  
But the traces of our greatest days  
          G          C     D 
Will fade away  


verse 2 

 G              C            G    Em  
From the pier the ships are leaving 
     C          Am     D 
The seeds to saplings grow  
  G            C       G     Em 
Saplings first turn to forests  
  C            D   Dsus4 
Then ships of oak 
  G               C         G     Em 
Fair winds blow through the journey 
   C        Am       D 
And I watch you from afar  
 G         C       G    Em 
Sailing on distant oceans  
 C          G   Dsus4   G 
Of eternal calm.

Bridge 

 C          D 
When it all started,  
 G           Em 
it came like poetry  
C            D     G           C   D   G 
A vision our truth awakened
