[Intro]
Em C Em B (2x)
[Verse]
Em B
Under the stars there shines one light
Em
That always glistens,
Always listens
B
To the whispers of the night
Em C Em B
When skies are black, full of despair
Em B
I ask the sun to tell the moon that two of us are there
[Bridge]
Em D
The afterglow
Em B Em
That’s down below
D Em
Is when I see you smile.
B Em D
And in your eyes
Em
True love decides
G B
Forever is a word that cries.
[Chorus]
Em
That I belong to you
D G B C
That endless nights so far away are gone, and you
B Em
Could never love another.
Am
And I love you too
G B D
I see it up above and now I feel the truth
[Verse]
B G Em B
We overlooked us ocean deep
Em B
But now this river that we’re swimming through is promises we keep
Em B
The sun comes up, there is no heat
Em B
‘Cause what we’re feeling is revealing, all we dared
Em D
So let it burn,
Em
It takes its turn
D Em
One we never would allow
G Em D Em
There is no heart that chance will break
G B
Nothing else could ever stop us now
[Chorus]
Em
For I belong to you
D G C
That endless nights so far away are gone, and you
Em
Could never love another.
Am Em Am
And I love you too
C Em B
I see it up above and now I feel the truth

I belong to you
