I Don't Want To Go On Without You
Nazareth · Nazology [2009]
Go on without you
It's so bad to be alone
Oh baby come home
I need you
My room is so blue
I keep seeing your face
Oh every place
Here in the gloom
Of my lonely room
I hold her memories
And smell her sweet perfume
I can't stand to
Live on without you
Oh my darlin', hear my plea
C'mon back to me
Here in the gloom
Of my lonely room
I hold her memories
And smell her sweet perfume
I can't stand to
Live on without you
Oh my darlin',hear my plea
C'mon back to me
I can't stand to
Go on without you...
