C               Em                       Am                    G
There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard

No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart

Our dreams, and they are made out of real things

With sepia-toned loving

Love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart,
like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?

It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together
?

And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone
When the morning light sings

Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Dm           G
I believe in memories
         Dm                  G
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
    Dm            G
Hey now, and when I wake up,
         Dm                 G
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
???

           F          G
But there is not enough time,
         F            G
There is no, no song I could sing
          Dm              G
And there is no combination of words I could say
          F              G
But I will still tell you one thing... we're better together.
