If I could I would but you know I can't lie to you If I could I'd say if you 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 and 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 and don't let go until I say so
