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 dieWhen 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
