I know that you're leaving,
I know that's the way it's got to be,
still, I keep believing,
that you'll find a way to stay with me.
Though, it's late, I'm not ready
to kiss you goodnight and close my eyes.
The morning, it's dawning,
we'll be out of time,
so won't you?
Stay tonight,
let's stay together,
and make believe you'll stay forever,
'cause I don't wanna hear you say goodbye
at the first ray of light.
My ray of light,
my ray of light...
I knew this was coming,
I knew we were here on borrowed time.
My heart couldn't take it,
and made up these lies inside my mind.
You can't go yet
let's stay awake 'til morning comes.
Let's pretend you're not leaving me for long,
so won't you?
Stay tonight,
let's stay together,
and make believe you'll stay forever,
'cause I don't wanna hear you say goodbye
at the first ray of light.
The sunrise is beautiful,
but it's gonna be my fall.
Dawn is inevitable,
and you will go.
I know this is not the end,
but until we're together again,
I'll hold onto this moment,
I won't let go.
Stay tonight,
let's stay together,
and make believe you'll stay forever,
'cause I don't wanna hear you say goodbye
at the first ray of light.
Stay tonight,
let's stay together,
and make believe you'll stay forever,
'cause I don't wanna hear you say goodbye
at the first ray of light.
My ray of light,
my ray of light...
