Before you go
walk out on me
Take a look around
tell me what you see
Here I stand
like an open book
Is there something here
you might have overlooked
'Cause it would be a shame
if you should leave
And find that freedom ain't
what you thought it would be
The years we had
were not all bad
In fact
I know the good outweighed the bad
Now you say
that you've grown tired
You want to be
by yourself a while
It would be a shame
if you should go
And find that freedom
was a long time ago
I know that you can't stand
the chains that bind you
They just keep on drivin' us apart
You could go
where I could never find you
But could you go far enough
to get away from your heart
So one more time,
for ol' times sake
Come and lay your head upon my chest
Please don't throw
this moment away
We can forget the bad
and take the best
If you don't have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time
for ol' times sake
If you don't have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time
for ol' times sake
