I know you have to go, we've been over this before
I don't want to think about it now, or maybe never more
Can't we just pretend, that this time you're gonna stay
And lets lay here together, and just love the night away

Chorus:
Hold me tight and love me, don't ever let me go
Don't say a word about tomorrow, my heart doesn't want to know
I don't want this night to ever end, but if somehow it does
Make me smile for a little while, let me remember how it was

I know you say you'll be back soon, but soon always seems so long
I know you think I understand, but you couldn't be more wrong
But lets not talk about it now, the night is almost gone
And I know my heart is breaking with the breaking of the dawn

Chorus:
Hold me tight and love me, don't ever let me go
Don't say a word about tomorrow, my heart doesn't want to know
I don't want this night to ever end, but if somehow it does
Make me smile for a little while, let me remember how it was

Bridge:
So when you go, go softly
And hurry back to me
And tell me that there is no love
Like the love you have for me
And though you go, inside I know
Inside my thoughts you'll be
I'll hold you safe inside my heart
And love you back to me

Chorus:
Hold me tight and love me, don't ever let me go
Don't say a word about tomorrow, my heart doesn't want to know
I don't want this night to ever end, but if somehow it does
Make me smile for a little while, let me remember how it was
