	This would have been worth waiting forever
	F        Dm7                 Gm7     C7 [1: w/intro riff]
	I always knew it'd feel this way

	And please forgive my shaking
	 Bb                Gm       A7

	If I'm who you're dreaming of
	                (please let me wonder...
	[1, 2:  Fmaj7   Gm7/C]
	[3, 4:  Cm7/F   Fmaj7]
	     ...love)          [3: (spoken) I love you]

Verse 2:

	I built all my goals around you
	That someday my love would surround you
	You'll never know what we've been through
	For so long I've thought about it
	And now I just can't live without it
	This beautiful image I have of you
