Standard (EADGBE)

 Well, I gave you Rome, but you gave it back.

 You said you didn't like the weather.

 And I laughed out loud as we made wedding plans

 but in, I knew that you meant every word.

 When I broke your nose, boy, you still looked good.

 It was hard enough sleeping with the door closed.

 Well, I'm older now, but I'm no better than I was

 when you still let me hold you, hold you.

Chorus

 I will not touch you in the dark

 if I cannot love you in the daylight.

Oh I, said I, I refuse to keep mine hid.

 I said I, I refuse to keep mine hid.

 Well, you gave me Rome, but I gave it back.

 We both knew that I couldn't stay there.

 You laughed aloud as we made wedding plans,

 but in, I prayed that you meant every word.

 When you broke my nose, I must have looked a fool.

 It was bad enough sleeping with our backs turned.

 Well, I'm older now, but I'm no better than I was

 when you still let me hold you, hold you.

Chorus

 And I will not touch you in the dark

 If I cannot love you in the daylight.

 Oh I, I said I, I refuse to keep mine hid

And I will not touch you in the dark

 If I cannot love you in the daylight.

 Oh I, I said I, I refuse to keep mine hid

 I said I, I refuse to keep mine hid.

In the daylight...

In the daylight...
