Willie Nelson - I Just Can't Let You Say Goodbye lyrics

I had not planned On seeing you I was afraid Of what I'd do But pride is strong And here am I And I just can't let You say goodbye Please, have no fear You're in no harm As long as you're Here in my arms But you can't leave So please, don't try I just can't let You say goodbye What force behind Your evil mind Can make your lips Speak so unkind To one who loves As much as I But I just can't let You say goodbye The flesh around Your throat is pale Indented by My fingernails Please, don't scream Please, don't cry I just can't let You say goodbye Your voice is still It speaks no more You'll never hurt Me anymore d**h is a friend To love and I 'Cause now you'll never say goodbye
