please don't take my heart away.
Promise me, just one more night,
Then we'll go our separate ways.
We always had time on our side,
but now it's fading fast.
Every second, every moment,
we've got to, we've got to make it last.
I touch you once.
I touch you twice.
I won't let go at any price.
I need you now, like I needed you then.
You aways said we'd still be friends, someday.
If you leave, I won't cry.
I won't waste one single day.
But if you leave, no don't look back,
I'll be running the other way.
Seven years went under the bridge,
like time was standing still.
Heaven knows what happens now,
you've got to, you've got to say you will.
I touch you once.
I touch you twice.
I won't let go at any price.
I need you now, like I needed you then.
You always said we'd meet again, someday.
Oh if you leave...
...please don't leave..."
- OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark), circa 1986
