Lyrics

Never let me go Love me much too much If you let me go Life would loose its touch What would I be with out you? There's no place for me with out you Never let me go I'd be so lost if you went away There'd be a thousand hours in the day Without you I know Because of one caress my world was overturned At the very start all my bridges burned By my flaming heart You'd never leave me would you You couldn't hurt me could you Never let me go Please never let me Because of one caress my world was overturned At the very start all my bridges burned by my flaming heart You'd never leave me would you You couldn't hurt me could you? Never let me go Never let me go Never... let me go...
