lyrics

verse 1

if you should fall asleep

tell me this promise that you'd keep

tell me i'm always on your mind

eventhough i've run out of time

keep me always on your shelf

keep me always to yourself

if i should get my wish

i'd get exactly this

chorus

if you don't

don't say so

then you'll never

you'll never know

cause if you don't

don't say so

then just let me

just let me go

verse2

this place is getting cold

and this feeling is getting old

but i still promise you

what i can't follow through

and never let me know

what it took to let me go

if i should get my wish

i'd get exactly this

chorusx4
