Standard (EADGBE)

  Please tell me why do birds,

  sing when you're near me,

  sing when you're close to me

  They say that I'm a fool,

  for loving you deeply,

  loving you secretly

  But I crash in my mind,

  whenever you are near

  Getting deaf, dumb and blind

  Just drowning in despair

  I am lost in you're flame

  It's burning like the sun

  And I call out your name

  The moment you are gone

  Please tell me why can't I,

  breathe when you're near me,

  breathe when your close to me

  I know you know I'm lost

  in loving you deeply,

  loving you secretly secretly

  But I crash in my mind,

  whenever you are near

  Getting deaf, dumb and blind

  Just drowning in despair

  I am lost in you're flame

  It's burning like the sun

  And I call out your name

  The moment you are gone

  Tomorrow, I'll say it all tomorrow

  Or the day after tomorrow

  I'm sure I'll tell you then

  But I crash in my mind,

  whenever you are near

  Getting deaf, dumb and blind

  Just drowning in despair

  I am lost in you're flame

  It's burning like the sun

  And I call out your name

  The moment you are gone
