Falling Apart at the Seams Lyrics

on ARIOLA Records in 1976.
INTRO: A D E..A F#m Bm E..A F#m D
CHORUS:
Un..til you came, it felt like my world was fallin'
apart at the seams.
All of my childhood dreams were empty and meaningless.
Un..til we kissed it seemed like the rain was turnin' my
hopes into sand.
Oh, I was a yesterday man, until I found you.
#1.
It was as plain as the nose on my face that I was heading
nowhere.
Then into my life came an angel of grace..sunlight in her
hair.
Now, love is the strangest emotion..cause just when I want
you to stay..seems like you're changing....don't turn me
away..(don't turn me away.)
CHORUS:
Un..til you came, it felt like my world was fallin'
apart at the seams.
All of my childhood dreams were empty and meaningless.
Un..til we kissed it seemed like the rain was turnin' my
hopes into sand.
Oh, I was a yesterday man, until I found you.
(INTERLUDE:) D E..A F#m Bm E
#2.
I'm like a man in a mantle of black who just saw the light..
who cast off the shadow when you gave him back the meaning
to life.
Now, love is the strangest emotion..cause just when I want you
to stay..seems like you're changing....don't turn me away..
(I want you to stay.)
OUTRO:
Un..til you came, it felt like my world was fallin'
apart at the seams.
All of my childhood dreams were empty and meaningless.
Un..til we kissed it seemed like the rain was turnin' my
hopes into sand.
Oh, I was a yesterday man, until I found you.
A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
