1. The kiss sweetest
   Emi D        Ami
   And touch so warm
   Emi D     Ami
   The smile kindest
   Emi     D        Ami      D
   In this world so cold and strong

      Emi              Hmi
R: So close to the flame
   C       D
   Burning brightly
            Emi     Hmi
   It won't fade away
       C        D
   And leave us lonely

2. The arms safest
   And words all good
   The faith deepest
   In this world so cold and cruel

R: So close to the flame...
