After [G]long enough of being [Am]alone
Everyone [Am]must [D7]face their share of [G]loneliness
In my own [A7]time nobody [D]knew
The [G]pain I was goin' [C]through
And [Am]waitin' was all [Dsus4]my heart [D]could do
Hope [G]was all I had until you [Am]came
Maybe [Am]you can't [D7]see how much [G]you mean to me
You were the [A7]dawn breaking the [D]night
The [G]promise of morning [C]light
Filling [A7]the world [Dsus4]surrounding [D]me
When I hold [D7]you
(F) Baby, baby, feels like maybe
things [Am]will be all right
(F) Baby, baby, your love's made me
Free [Dsus4]as a [D7]song, singin' forever
Chorus:
Only [G]yesterday when I was [Am]sad and I was [D7]lonely
You [G]showed me the way to leave the [Am]past
And all its [D7]tears behind me
Tomorrow [B]maybe even [Em]brighter than [Esus] [E]today
Since [Am]I threw my [D7]sadness [Am7]away
Only [D7]yester [G]day
I [G]have found my home here in your [Am]arms
Nowhere [D7]else on earth I'd really rather [G]be [Em]
Life waits for [A7]us, share it with [D]me
The [G]best is about to [C]be
And [A7]so much is left for [Dsus4]us to see
When I hold [D7]you
