[Verse 1]
C5
  How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail

[Verse 2]
C5
  How many days have we wasted
               F5       Ab5
Chasing a love that was not our own?
C5
  I sat ashore, ashore and watched
                F5                Ab5
As one hopeless wave crashed upon another
C5
  While my thoughts ran to the hills
                F5
My heart never, never reached the sea
Ab5
C5
  With only delusions of an endless journey
                  F5   Ab5                C5
I am left with an ocean   between you and me

[Chorus]
C5
  Is this your salvation?
Eb5
   Is this all you can give?
Ab5
   I will not stand in reflection
F5                       C5
  Of someone else's dream

[Verse 3]
C5
  The gate to my heart has been weld shut
                     F5     Ab5
With the splendor of my aspirations closed in

[Verse 4]
C5
  How many years have we waited
                F5
For a ship that never set sail
Ab5 C5
      How many days have we wasted
               F5       Ab5         C5
Chasing a love that was not our own?

[Chorus]
