I Don't need moonlight and roses   I don't want you to stand here and tell me lies   I know what you're feeling, I think I know why   Please don't let this love go by      It's so hard to think in the long run   And it's so easy to stand back and drift apart   There's nothing you'd ask me that I wouldn't try   Please don't let this love go by      Don't let this love go by   Don't you feed another flame   And let the first one die   You might believe you can take it in your stride   But these things go bad every time      I feel a whole lot of heartache and bad times   Comin' on like a fast train for you and me   There's a change in your voice, a stranger in your eyes   Please don't let this love go by      Don't let this love go by   Don't you feed another flame   And let the first one die   You might believe you can take it in your stride   But these things go bad every time      I don't need moonlight and roses   I don't want you to stand here and tell me lies   I know what you're feeling, I think I know why   Please do't let this love go by      Darlin' please dont' let this love go by
