Don’t go away
Not when I need you so
I’ll make things different, you know
Don’t let it be too late
I’m sorry now
For all of my mistakes
Though you may never forget
Oh, please, don’t go away
You walk beside me
Every night when I drift off to dream
But in the morning
We’re distant as can be
Don’t go away
Not when I need you so
I’ll make things different, you know
Don’t let it be too late
I’m sorry now
For all of my mistakes
Though you may never forget
Oh, please, don’t go away
All things will work out
If we hold together through these times
Just stand by me now
The rest will fall in line
Don’t go away
Not when I need you so
I’ll make things different, you know
Don’t let it be too late
I’m sorry now
For all of my mistakes
Though you may never forget
Oh, please, don’t go away
Oh, you may never forget
But, please, don’t go away
