          C                                           G
Oh, I've searched for you my lady, For one hundred thousand years,
      F                                      C
I've felt your arms around me, And you've washed away my fears.
       C                                  G
I've seen the way you sparkle, When your body's next to mine,
          F                                  C
And I've seen the way your smile makes the sunlight always shine

Chorus

         C             G
When the sky turns to gray,
        F                  C
And the night moves into day,
                C                G
I can make the sun shine for awhile,
            F                 CG            F               C
I have the memory of your smile, of your smile, of your smile.

I can see the way before me, yes the road that lies ahead,
My lady, you're not here with me, in that lovely dress of red,
But you're always in my heart, and you're always in my mind,
And the memory of your smile makes the sunlight always shine.

Chorus

So I'll search for you my lady, for one hundred thousand more,
To feel you next to me again, and in my arms once more.
So I can see you sparkle once again, when your body's next to mine,
'Til then the sunlight shines for me, I see you smile all the time.

Chorus twice
