Please Don´T Go
Kelly Family · Other Songs - Kelly Family
What made you leave my life
If you could tell me straight
I might never do it again
Please don´t leave me
Please don´t go...
Hey little sister don´t cry
Come on hold your head up high
If you could be so brave
To let him go his way
Please don´t leave me
Please don´t go
Please believe me
I need you so
If you can´t take my love
Or you can´t take my soul
If you can´t take my love
I´ll learn to let you go
Bought a baby´s dress one day
And hid it under my bed
(Oh yes she did...)
I never did act this way
(What´s this way?)
Until I met you babe (Babe yeah)
Please don´t leave me
Please don´t go
Please believe me
I need you so
2 x
If you can´t take my love
Or you can´t take my soul
If you can´t take my love
I´ll learn to let you go
Please don´t leave me
Please don´t go
Please don't leave me
Please don't go
Please Don't Go
