Verse 1

  It's so hard for me to say

  The things I really feel

  If I could I'd chase away

  The pain your eyes reveal

  The pain your eyes reveal

  From foolish things I've done

  The times that I let you down

  And I'll never change, believe me I try

  If you go away, you know that I'll die

  / -5/ [9/8: /// /// ///]

Oh I love you, please don't say goodbye

[repeat chorus]

[repeat string break 1]

Verse 2

We've had bad times

Through the years

And though I've made you cry

Think of me through tender tears

And try to close your eyes

And try to close your eyes

To thoughtless things I do

The dreams that don't come true

'Cause I'll never change, believe me I try

If you go away, you know that I'll die

Oh I need you, please don't say goodbye

[repeat chorus]
