Here I am waiting

 

I'll have to leave soon

 

Why am I holding on?

 

We knew this day would come

 

We knew it all along

 

How did it come so fast?

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

This is our last night, but it's late

 

And I'm trying not to sleep

 

'Cause I know, when I wake

 

I will have to slip away

 

 

[Chorus]

 

And when the daylight comes, I'll have to go

 

But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

 

'Cause in the daylight, we'll be on our own

 

But tonight I need to hold you so close

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

 

[Verse 2]

 

Here I am staring at your perfection

 

In my arms, so beautiful

 

The sky is getting bright

 

The stars are burning out

 

Somebody slow it down

 

 

[Pre-Chorus 2]

 

This is way too hard

 

'Cause I know, when the sun comes up

 

I will leave, this is my last glance

 

That will soon be memory

 

 

[Chorus]

 

And when the daylight comes, I'll have to go

 

But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

 

'Cause in the daylight, we'll be on our own

 

But tonight, I need to hold you so close

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

 

[Bridge]

 

I never want it to stop

 

Because I don't wanna start all over, start all over

 

I was afraid of the dark

 

But now it's all that I want, all that I want, all that I want

 

 

[Chorus]

 

And when the daylight comes, I'll have to go

 

But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

 

'Cause in the daylight, we'll be on our own

 

But tonight I need to hold you so close

 

And when the daylight comes I'll have to go

 

But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

 

'Cause in the daylight, we'll be on our own

 

But tonight I need to hold you so close

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

 

 

[Outro]

 

Ooh-whoa (Yeah), ooh-whoa (Yeah), ooh-whoa (Yeah, yeah)

 

Ooh-whoa (Yeah), ooh-whoa (Yeah), ooh-whoa
