lyrics

Intro: G C Em D

G C D
What do I have to say?
G C D
Say it anyway.
G D C
What do I have to feel
G D C
The moment I reveal
Csus C Csus C
The softer side? I’ve tried to hide, well
G G7 Am
Hiding has lost its appeal.
D D7 Am D
For the first time, in a long time, I’d rather feel

CHORUS:
C Em
The softer side is there
Am D7
Guess I was unaware
C D7 G
You share a softer side
C Em
The softer side I’ve dared
Am D7
To let on that I care
C D7 G
Here is my softer side.

G C D
When will your lips taste mine?
G C D
Let bodies intertwine.
G D C
When will our first kiss be?
G D C
When I let you close to me,
Csus C Csus C
To the softer side. Won’t try to hide.
G G7 Am
Hiding has lost its appeal.
D D7 Am D
For the first time, in a long time, I’d rather feel

CHORUS

G C Em Am
Feel your lips, pillows on my own.
G C Em D
Feel your chest rise, I feel known.
G Em C Em
When they say, it hurts to feel
G C Em D
They underestimate the power to heal

G C D
So what do you have to say
G C D
If I’m living for today?
G D C
And what do you have to feel
G D C
So that I won’t conceal
Csus C Csus C
The softer side? Don’t want to hide.
G G7 Am
Hiding has lost its appeal.
D D7 Am D
For the first time, in a long time, I’d rather feel

CHORUS (2x)

CHORUS (Da da da…)
