F#m                                       E  F#m 
By now you'd think I'd write a million songs 
F#m 
Gifts of a wounded heart 

But when it comes to you, there's too much to say 
         C# 
And I never know where to start 


                 F#m                                           E  F#m 
Since that day no one had taken your place 
                                                        C# 
No one can fill up the space you left behind 
         F#m 
I ask myself, could I ever love again? 
                C#                              F#m   
And bear another beating of this kind? 


              D                     F#m 
Another strike, another ache 
              D                      C# 
How much hurt can one take? 
              D                     F#m 
Another fear I cannot shake 
                        D            C#          F#m 
Just how much hurt can one heart take? 


Same whole song through 

By now you think I would let you go 

That I'd stop dreaming of you at night 

But I just can't stop thinking about 

How you walked away without a fight 



The words you never said they haunt me 

The one's you did were as sharp as a knife 

I ask myself if you ever thought of me 

While you were slowly coming back to life 



Another strike, another ache 

How much hurt can one take? 

Another scar, for heaven's sake 

How many times can one heart break? 



By now you'd think I'd pick up the phone 

And tell you I've been feeling so blue 

But when it comes to you, there's too much to say 

So much to be said by you
