CI found myself dreaming
EmOf silver and gold
AmLike a scene from movie
 ThatFevery broken heart knows
CWe were walking on moonlight
EmWhen you held me close
AmSplit second and you disappeared
 AndFthen I was all alone
 ICwoke up in tears with you by my side
EmBreathe of relief and I realized
AmNo, we\'re notFpromised tomorrowC 
 So I\'m gonnaClove you
 like I\'m gonnaEmlose you
 I\'m gonnaAmhold you,
 like I\'m saying good-Fbye
 Wherever we\'reCstanding,
 I won\'t take you forEmgranted
 Cause we\'ll neverAm

 AndFlove with no regret
 SoClet\'s take the time to say what we want
EmUse what we got before it\'s all gone
AmNo, we\'re notFpromised tomorrowC
