lyrics

LYRICS
Please don't ask me to stay
I'm leaving soon you'll see
My intention this evening was not to delay
That's the way it should be

Oh pour me one last drink
Though I'm already full
Of feeling and thoughts I don't want to think
Don't want to think at all

Don't want to wait for you - to look away
And give me the chance to gaze
Though you amaze me so - I'm not ready yet
For you to see something - I might regret

So if you look in my eyes
Don't worry if I look away
You'll never hear how my heart sighs
Parting is like a thousand goodbyes
Oh please don't ask me to stay

So if you look in my eyes
Don't worry if I look away
You'll never hear my bitter sweet sighs
The helpless lament of hopeless goodbyes
Oh please don't ask me to stay
