Are we really happy here with this lonely game we play

Cm          Fm7(9)   Bm7(b5)  F7   F7(G9)
Looking for words                to say

Cm                Cm7M      Cm7               G#7(9)
Searching but not finding understanding any way

Both afraid to say were just too far away

From being close together from the start

   Bm7              B7           F7M
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way

Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes

And no matter how    hard I try

Cm                 Cm7M           Cm7           G#7(9)
To understand the reasons that we carry on this way

      Bm7(b5)     Bm7(b5)  F7    Cm     G#7(9)
Were lost in this mas      que   rade
