I know you loved him a long time ago
Even now in my arms you still want him i know
But darling this time i hope your memory's dying,
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
And darling just once
Let yesterday go
'cause you found 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
Lying here in your arms
Knowing he's in your mind
But i keep hoping someday
That you'll see the lie
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
And darling just once
Let yesterday go
'cause you found more love
Than you've ever known
Just hold me tight
When you love me tonight
Don't close your eyes

Just hold me tight
When you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
