Across a crowded room was close enough,
A G#m F#7
I could look but I could never touch

So tonight I'll ask the stars above,
E G# Amaj7 B7
"How did I ever win your love?"

What did I do? What did I say?
A E B E [E to B is 1 beat early)
to make you turn your angel-eyes my way?

but this girl you see, she's leavin' here with me tonight......

E G# A B
Well There's just one more thing that I need to know,
E G# Amaj7 B7
if this is love why does it scare me so?

It must be somethin only you can see,

A E B E [E to B is 1 beat early)
to make you turn your angel-eyes my way?............
