C#m                 G#m
She was born with a song in the air
       D#m        E
In the summer of 85;
    C#m                      G#m            D#
The clouds just went and the day became so bright.
   C#m           G#m
A child of love, angel like,
D#m                       E
With the most beautiful smile,
 C#m                                 D#
Growing up to be the sunshine of my life.

     G#m
Come talk to me,
      D#m
Don’t run away,
 E                       B   F#  
Don’t let the distance grow.
    G#m
The door’s wide open,
      D#m
Don’t ever think,
        C#
There's no way home.

Chorus:
F#m
Sly
            C#m
Come home tonight;
     D
The world is so bad,
      E
You drive them all mad
      F#m
With your smile.
  D
Sly
F#m             E
My joy and my pride;
          D
When the runaway train,
 A
Took you away,
  G#sus4        G#
A part of me died.

The years went by like the summer of love
So much changed in our lives
They're too many scars deep under my skin
Love turned to hate and hate to love
Let's start all over again
And now I wonder what life will bring

Just let us laugh
The tears away
No more hard feelings no
Because after all
You're my flesh and blood
I don't want you to fall
