Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye
Without sayin' goodbye
[Verse 2]
You and I, cold February night
It's been half an hour
Taking sweet time sayin' our goodbyes
One minute more (Go)
[Verse 3]
The best day of my life is all thanks to you
Precious remembrance
Saved for rainy days or February
Few scenes from my life
Where moments mean more to me
Than our fine night
I remember like yesterday
The time of my life
[Verse 4]
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye
Without sayin' goodbye
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye
Without sayin' goodbye
Let's travel back in time
[Verse 5]
2-12-99
At the stroke of midnight
Holdin' you tight, your body and mine, in February
Few scenes from my life
Where moments mean more to me
Than our fine night
I remember like yesterday
The time of my life
[Verse 6]
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye
Without sayin' goodbye
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye
Without sayin' goodbye
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye (Please don't leave me)
Without sayin' goodbye
Please don't leave me
Without sayin' goodbye (Please don't leave me)
Without sayin' goodbye
Let's travel back in time
