         If I've been the one you love
                         (please let me wonder)
                            Gm7         Gm7/C
         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
