Bm A/C# E/G# Bm
You're only just a dreamboat, sailing in my head
A/C# E/G# Bm
You swim my secret oceans of coral blue and red
A/C# E/G# Gmaj7
Your smell is incense burning, your touch is silken yet
D Gmaj7 F#
It reaches through my skin, Moving from within, it clutches at my breast
Chorus
Bm D7
But it's only when I sleep, I see you in my dreams,
E Em A
Got me spinning round and round, turning upside down

But I only hear you breathe, somewhere in my sleep,

Bm A/C# E/G# Bm
And when I wake from slumber, your shadow's disappeared
A/C# E/G# Bm
Your breath is just a sea mist surrounding my body
A/C# E/G# Gmaj7
I'm working through the daytime but when it's time to rest
D Gmaj7 F#
I'm lying in my bed, listening to my breath, falling from the edge
