"Early Lovers"

"You occupy my mind every minute, night and day....
I have to do something to make myself
at ease and comfortable...to make my soul rest..."

"Yes? what would that be?"

...I have to have you forever..."

CAN'T FIGHT THIS FEELING

Reo Speedwagon

 

                              A                           C#m               F#m   F#m7

                               I can't fight this feeling any longer

                                      Bm               BM7         E7

                              And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow

                                         C#m                C#m7                         F#m   F#     

                              What started out as friendship, has grown stronger

                                         Bm                   Bm7                    E

                               I only wish I had the strength to let it show
                                  A                        C#m               F#m  F#m7

                               I tell myself that I can't hold out forever

                                   Bm                    BM7              E  E7

                               I said there is no reason for my fear

                                            C#m        C#m7                    F#m  F#

                              Cause I feel so secure when we're together

                                       Bm                C#m

                               You give my life direction

                                        Bm                           E

                               You make everything so clear
                                         D                                        A

                               And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight

                                               D 

                               You're a candle in the window

                                         A                            E

                               On a cold, dark winter's night

                                        D                                 A                        E

                               And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might  
                                                                 A                Bm

                               And I can't fight this feeling anymore

                            D                                      A                    Bm 

                               I've forgotten what I started fighting for

                            D                                    A                   Bm

                               It's time to bring this ship into the shore

                                       C#m                         Bm      E      

                               And throw away the oars, forever
                                                                      A              Bm

                               Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore

                             D                                     A                     Bm

                                I've forgotten what I started fighting for

                             D                          A                      Bm

                               And if I have to crawl upon the floor

                                           C#m                            D

                               Come crushing through your door

                                             Bm                       E           

                               Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore



                                                              



                               My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you

                                I've been running round in circles in my mind 

                               And it always seems that I'm following you, girl

                               Cause you take me to the places that alone I'd never find
                               And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight

                               You're a candle in the window on a cold, dark winter's night

                               And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might
                               And I can't fight this feeling anymore

                                I've forgotten what I started fighting for

                                It's time to bring this ship into the shore

                               And throw away the oars, forever
                               Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore

                                I've forgotten what I started fighting for

                               And if I have to crawl upon the floor

                               Come crushing through your door

                               Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
