C                       F      G
I've been loving you a long time
C                                F   G
down all the years, down all the days
C                           F      G
and I've cried for all your troubles
C                            F    G
smiles at your funny little ways

we watched our friends grow up together
and we saw them as they fell
some of them fell into heaven
some of them fell into hell

I took shelter from the showers
and I stepped into your arms
on a rainy night in soho
the wind was whistling all its charms

I sang you all my sorrows 
and you told me all your joys
what ever happened to that old song?
all those little girls and boys

Now this song is nearly over
you may never find out what it means
but there's a light I hold before me
and you're the measure of my dreams
the measure of my dreams
