Lyrics
Don't go now
Don't leave me behind
I need this time together to go on
Say the word
A whisper to my soul
And I will follow anywhere you go
Don't go now
I need to turn your image into my heart
To keep my memories from falling apart
Yesterday
A million years ago
I found comfort in knowing you were there
But now it seems
I've woken from a dream
And stepped into a cold reality
Don't go now
I need to burn your image into my heart
To keep my memories from falling apart
Yesterday?yesterday just seems so far away to me
'till that hollow lets me follow
let this song go in my place
Don't go now
Don't leave me behind
I need this time together to go on
Don't go now
Don't go now
I need this time together to go on
