Here I am waiting, I’ll have to leave
soon, why am I holdin’ on
We knew this day would come, we
knew it all along
How did it come so fast
This is our last night, but it’s late
and I’m tryin’ not to sleep
‘Cause I know, when I wake I will have
to slip away

And when the daylight comes I’ll have
to go
But, tonight I’m ‘gonna hold you so
close
‘Cause in the daylight, we’ll be on our
own
But, tonight I need to hold you so
close
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa

Here I am starring, at your perfection
in my arms; so beautiful.
The sky is getting bright, the stars
are burnin’ out.
Somebody slow it down.
This is way too hard, ‘cause I know
when the sun comes up I will leave
This is my last glance that will soon be
memories

And when the daylight comes I’ll have
to go
But, tonight I’m ‘gonna hold you so
close
‘Cause in the daylight, we’ll be on our
own
But, tonight I need to hold you so
close
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa

I never wanted to stop, because I
don’t want to start all over, start all
over
I was afraid of the dark, but now it’s
all that I want, all that I want, all
that I want

And when the daylight comes I’ll have
to go
But, tonight I’m ‘gonna hold you so
close
‘Cause in the daylight, we’ll be on our
own
But, tonight I need to hold you so
close

And when the daylight comes I’ll have
to go
But, tonight I’m ‘gonna hold you so
close
‘Cause in the daylight, we’ll be on our
own
But, tonight I need to hold you so
close

Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, (yeah) oh whoa, (yeah) oh
whoa (yeah) (yeah)
Oh whoa, (yeah hey) oh whoa, (yeah
hey) oh whoa
