[Verse]
I know you loved him, a long time ago
Even now in my arms, you still want him I know
But Darlin this time, let your memories die
When you hold me tonight, don t close your eyes
[Chorus]
Don t close your eyes, let it be me
Don t pretend it s him in some fantasy
Darlin just once let yesterday go
And you ll find more love than you ve ever know
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don t close your eyes
(GUITAR INTERLUDE)
[Verse]
Maybe I ve been a fool, holdin on all this time
Lyin here in your arms, knowin he s in your mind
But I keep hoping some day, that you ll see the light
Let it be me tonight, don t close your eyes
[CHORUS]
Don t close your eyes, let it be me
Don t pretend it s him in some fantasy
Darlin just once let yesterday go
And you ll find more love than you ve ever know
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don t close your eyes
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don t close your eyes
