if i could i would but you know i can't lie to you
if i could i'd say if you say so then i'll say yes
the sun burns so bright i can't see the hurt in your eyes
the moon buries itself behind the clouds
i can't tell what you're thinking about
will you let me stay for awhile
don't forget me please don't cry
just hold me close
don't let go until i say so
will you think of me when you smile
do old memories bring tears to your eyes
just hold me close don't let go until i say so
if you would then i would be here for you when you need me
if you would then i would not do the things that made you leave me
the stars flash and burn out but i feel your eyes burn into me
the rainbow brightens up the day
and leaves me hanging on to a few words to say
will you let me stay for awhile
don't forget me please don't cry
just hold me close
don't let go until i say so
will you think of me when you smile
do old memories bring tears to your eyes
just hold me close don't let go until i say so
you only cross my mind every second everyday
i need to unwind before i fade away
will you let me stay for awhile
don't forget me please don't cry
just hold me close
don't let go until i say so
will you think of me when you smile
do old memories bring tears to your eyes
just hold me close
