[Verse 1]
Don't you go
Don't you leave
We'll be good
Just wait and see
So many things we never knew
Like you need me
And I long for you

[Verse 2]
I can't bear
To sleep at night
When you're not there
To close the light
Tell me why the world was born
What good's a world
When the one you love is gone?

[Bridge]
Don't leave tonight
Don't close the door
No need to fight
No call to war
We could make it if we tried
A touch of laughter
A long goodbye
[Verse 3]
I can't go
But I can't stay
Life changes so
From black and white to grey
And old cliches that grow like vines
To choke the heart
Of the one you leave behind

[Bridge]
The hollow laughter
And empty rooms
The morning after
Comes too soon
You could make the angels cry
But I can't take a long goodbye

[Verse 1]
So don't you go
Don't you leave
We'll be good
Just you wait and see
So many things I never knew
Like you need me
And I long for you
