Peabo Bryson

[Verse 1]
I have loved you for a long, long time, my love
Please don't walk away, don't leave me now, don't try
You're all I think of when I'm all alone
Can you explain to me where we went wrong
How can you say that you love me yet hurt me this way?

[Chorus]
Don't make me cry, don't say it's over
Don't let us waste another day
Don't say you're leaving me, I don't want it to end this way, oh no

[Chorus]
Time will heal the pain of our goodbye, I know
But I will love you 'til the day I die, I'm sure
Just try to remember the moments we shared
We promised each other we'd always be there
What have we done to our dreams, how can this be fair?

[Chorus]
Don't make me cry, don't say it's over
Don't let us waste another day
Don't say you're leaving me, I don't want it to end this way
Don't make me cry, don't say it's over
Don't make me cry, don't walk away
Don't say you're leaving me, I don't want it to ever change

[Bridge]
Baby, give me another chance
I know we can make it
'Cause I love you, you love me, that much we know
Tell me why it's so hard to let go
Don't let go

[Saxophone solo]

[Chorus]
Don't make me cry, don't say it's over
Don't let us waste another day
Don't say you're leaving me, I don't want it to end this way, no
Don't make me cry, don't say it's over
Don't make me cry, don't walk away
Don't say you're leaving me, I don't want it to ever change, no

[Outro]
Don't let go
Don't let it end this way, no no no
Don't let go
Don't let go
