[Verse 1]
I keep hearing melodies
And everything you say to me
But I'm proceeding carefully
Because I don't want my poor heart
To be broken again
Like an old piece of gla**
On the streets that you walk past
On the way to your new lover
[Verse 2]
I keep seeing starry skies
Reflecting in your darling eyes
But I'm too old and I'm too wise
I see right through your thin disguise
To you, it's just a game
You don't even know my name
But it's better off that way
Cause you don't blow my cover
[Chorus]
We could've shared
Something to last all time
Now we may not have anymore
So baby just once
Grant me this last request
Don't look back when you go
[Verse 3]
Everything was looking down
When I stumbled into this town
But you have turned my life around
You set my feet on solid ground
And even when I say
That I wish that I could stay
I'd trade all my yesterday's
For the chance of wanting love
[Verse 4]
Maybe someday down the line
And in another place and time
I could be yours, you could be mine
Tell me, wouldn't that be fine?
But we both know what's best
If we leave [?]
Cause if we put it to the test
It would only bring us sorrow
[Chorus]
We could've shared
Something to last all time
Now we may not have anymore
So baby, just once
Grant me this last request
Don't look back when you go
[Chorus]
We could've shared
Something to last all time
Now we may not have anymore
So baby, just once
Grant me this last request
Don't look back when you go
