So little time    to let you know    how much I love you,

E7 Bm7-5  AM7  D9    Dm6     Dm+7 Dm6    Fdim   Em7  A7/9  A   A7 
So little time    to let you know    how much I care.

    Cdim     G9  G  G/F#      Em9
And though I try to make be - lieve 

     Cdim    Em   Em7  D9       Em7/9  Em7
This love of ours will last for - ev - er,

Cdim  G  G/F#Em7sus4 Em7 B+ Bm7-5  D9

This sad old world,   when we are gone,    will go on spinning;

  E7 Bm7-5  AM7  D9     Dm6     Dm+7 Dm6       Fdim      Am7   D7/9 
These very stars,   when we are gone,     will shine as bright,

So hold me in your arms until tomorrow,

    Cdim        AM7   C#7      DM7   D6  Dm6 Bm7-5  A
For there's so little time, so lit - tle time to - night.
