I've seen it before
I know the score
You're trying to be wild and carefree
You really can't take it no more
I'm trying to think
I can't think clear
Everybody's talking to me
It's gone foggy in here
But as time goes marching home again
It leaves me to reflect
Or was this just a waste of time
Or was this time well spent
And if it marches back again
And orders me to smile
Then will I be prepared
Or will it take a little while
[Repeat: x4]
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
I've listened to you
Please listen to me
Don't tie us up completely
Just wait and see
I'll try very hard for a second chance
Which is it to be? One dead romance
Or a handful of dreams? Please tell me
It makes all the difference to me
And I really want to know
I've done so many things I suddenly regret
If I could only compromise and you'd try to forget
A single kiss, a lovers wish, the past dissolves in tears
The present burns inside of me, the future disappears
[Repeat: x4]
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Oh Yes I will and I'll go
Out of my way to make you happy
Till the sun don't shine and sky stops turning blue
I really want to know
Could I ever be happy
Without somebody who really cared
Somebody like you
[Repeat: x4]
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Yes I will
