I know you loved him a long time ago
And even now in my arms, you still want him, I know
But darling, this time, let your memories die
When you hold 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
And you'll find more love than you've ever known
And just hold me tight when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Maybe I've been a fool, holdin' on all this time
Lyin' here in your arms, knowin' he's in your mind
But I keep hopin' some day that you'll see the light
Let it be me tonight and 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
And you'll find more love than you've ever known
And just hold me tight when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
And don't pretend it's him in some fantasy
And darling, just once, let yesterday go
And you'll find more love than you've ever known
And just hold me tight when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Just hold me tight when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
