Don't Leave Me Now

(album: I Could Have Been A Sailor - 1979)

Don't leave me now
Don't throw it all away
After last night
We can't just call it a day
Don't break a heart
That's only starting to beat
And don't believe the talk
That you hear on the street

I tell you the truth now
We've been through the worst
It can only get better
And you were the first
For a long, long time
A long, long time

Believe me now
Though you've got reason to doubt
But I'm the first to jump
At the chance to get out
The joke's on me
I thought that I knew it all
But one look at you
And I feel myself falling

I'm finally melting
It's happening fast
You've broken the ice and now
You'll be the last
For a long, long time
A long, long time

We've both got our secrets
They're all in the past
I knew from the first
That you'd be the last
For a long, long time
A long, long time
Don't leave me now...
