I know you loved him a long time ago Even now in my arms you still want him I know But darling this time let your memories die When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy Darling just once let yesterday go You'll find more love than you've ever known Just hold me tight when you love me tonight Don't close your eyes Maybe I've been a fool, holding on all this time Lyin' here in your arms, knowing he's in your mind But I keep hoping some day that you'll see the light Let it be me tonight, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy Darling just once let yesterday go You'll find more love than you've ever known Just hold me tight when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes let it be me Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy Darling just once let yesterday go You'll find more love than you've ever known Just hold me tight when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Just hold me tight when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes
