It's the time of the morning that I really dread
Dressing in the dark, so I don't wake you from our bed
But as I reach the door you turn
and you whisper soft and low

"Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go"

I said a thousand times before
"babe, you know I really want to stay"
'Cause, lying here in your arms
it feels so simple and so safe
You pull me close and you sing to me
In a voice that melts my soul

"Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go"

I had a dream that I'm dying to tell
'Cause it starts so sweet and it ends so well
And leaving you is as hard as hell, you know, you know
Baby, please don't go

You know I ain't tryin' to break your heart
Baby, please don't go
We both knew what we'd have to do
And we knew it right from the start
It's just not fair to leave you lying there
In your golden afterglow

Saying, "Please don't go
Baby, please don't go"
(Baby, please don't go)
Saying, "Please don't go"
(Baby, please don't go)
"Oh, baby, please don't go"
(Baby, please don't go)
"Baby, please don't go"
