Intro:  A#m - G# - D#m  (2x)
 
 
 
A#m G#             D#m 
Song  instead of a kiss,  
               A#m G#             D#m 
baby this is a song  instead of a kiss 
    A#m     G#               Fm 
For all of you who ache, who long   
    F#     G#    A#m 
for nights like this 
 
 
 
A#m G#             D#m 
Song  instead of a touch, 
                  A#m G#             D#m 
darlin' this is a song  instead of a touch 
   A#m     G#             Fm 
To all of you who wait so long 
    F#   G# A#m 
and need so much 
 
 
 
           C#       G#       D#m   
It is for those who like to cling, 
          F#        G#     A#m  
it is to those, to those I sing 
          C#      G#        D#m                  F# G#  
Here is a song instead of a clutch, instead of a moon 
             A#m       F#          G#    A#m   
Instead of a soothing touch in the afternoon
