Gm             Cm 
Yes my love, I confess to you 
 Gm                         Cm 
I am only here to break your heart in two 
 Gm                  Cm 
The very flower you chose that day 
  Gm              Cm 
Its only task was to decay 
   Cm7 
You see? 

 Gm                  Cm 
When I watched your first bathing 
Gm                     Cm 
I only warned you with a lowered voice 
  Gm               Cm 
Be wary of my river's undertow 
   Gm                    Cm 
It flows with water from the coldest source 
      Cm7 
Did you hear? 

( Gm  Cm  Gm ) 

F 
And then I made sure 
F               Cm 
You would always return 
F 
You still know of dawn 
F                Cm 
But you always return 

Gm                 Cm 
When you hid under my black wings 
Gm                                Cm 
They couldn't have protected you from anything 
Gm                        Cm 
Once in flight they would have let go 
Gm                             Cm 
You would have once again wound up below 
   Cm7 
Only broken 

Gm                             Cm 
Indeed, it's wrong to keep you near me 
Gm                            Cm 
One could call me cruel and deceiving 
Gm                          Cm 
But in your sacred air I am full of light 
Gm                       Cm 
Your loving arms are the true delight 
        Cm7 
To which I'm lost 

F 
And you've noticed it 
F                        Cm 
There is something right here 
F                                      F 
You have come to love, yes you've come to love 
                 Cm 
What you always will fear 

Gm                      Cm 
Yes, my love, I confess to you 
Gm 
I've nothing but the means 
            Cm 
To break your heart in two 
Gm                       Cm       
My part in yours may seem important now 
Gm                              Cm 
But with every spring it will seem so small 
Gm           Cm 
Just for now I am your fall 
Gm 
I am your fall 
Cm 
I am your fall
