Lyrics

Before you go walk out on meTake a look around tell me what you seeHere I stand like an open bookIs there something here you might have overlooked‘Cause it would be a shame if you should leaveAnd find that freedom ain’t what you thought it would be
The years we had were not all badIn fact I know the good outweighed the badNow you say that you’ve grown tiredYou want to be by yourself a whileIt would be a shame if you should goAnd find that freedom was a long time ago
I know that you can’t stand the chains that bind youThey just keep on drivin’ us apartYou could go where I could never find youBut could you go far enough to get away from your heart
So one more time, for ol’ times sakeCome and lay your head upon my chestPlease don’t throw this moment awayWe can forget the bad and take the bestIf you don’t have nothing left to sayLet me hold you one more time for ol’ times sake
If you don’t have nothing left to sayLet me hold you one more time for ol’ times sake
