I know you loved him a long time ago   Even now in my arms you still want him I know   But darling this time let your memories die   When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes      Don't close your eyes, let it be me   Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy   Darling just once let yesterday go   You'll find more love than you've ever known   Just hold me tight when you love me tonight   Don't close your eyes      Maybe I've been a fool, holding on all this time   Lyin' here in your arms, knowing he's in your mind   But I keep hoping some day that you'll see the light   Let it be me tonight, don't close your eyes      Don't close your eyes, let it be me   Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy   Darling just once let yesterday go   You'll find more love than you've ever known   Just hold me tight when you love me tonight   And don't close your eyes      Don't close your eyes let it be me   Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy   Darling just once let yesterday go   You'll find more love than you've ever known   Just hold me tight when you love me tonight   And don't close your eyes      Just hold me tight when you love me tonight   And don't close your eyes
