F
I met him down by the bay,
He said life is a stranger
That won't go away

He took me by surprise
And I felt for the first time
What its like to be alive

Chorus:
 C 
I’m a soldier,
      Dm
but I don’t know how to fight.
 C 
I’m your best friend
         Dm
but I’m scared to see you tonight.
 C 
I’m the darkness,
      Dm
but I want to be the light,
          C 
oh how I want to be,
        Dm
oh how I want to be.

I met him down by the sea
Said I look like someone he knew
I said I don’t know anyone
So how could I possibly know you

He touched my hand
Finally I understand
What it means to be here with you
