DON'T GO
Lyrics
DON'T GO
(Fann/Papageorge)

This is where we say good-bye
Where lovers kiss and linger
Where airplanes travel overhead
And heated bodies tingle
But you and me, we're hugging sideways style
That's what we do
And what I'd really like to say to you is
Don't go

Let's just drink each other in
Stand here one more minute
Before we're back on separate shores
Pretending nothing happened
Before you fly back home to her
Read my mind and feel my love
Cause what I'd really like to say to you is
Don't go

Chorus:
Don't go, please, don't go
Don't go without me
We never had a chance
We never got to dance
Nearly long enough
Don't go thinking I don't love you
Don't leave me here alone
What I'd really like to say to you is
Don't go

How do I stop my racing heart
How do I hide the pain
How do I stop this falling feeling
How do I be ok
The tears are welling up so fast
I think they know you won't be back
What I'd really like to say to you is
Don't go
