Lyrics of I don't want to say goodbye.

As I sit and read this letter
That I wrote two nights ago
I just can't drop it in the mail
I just can't let it go

The words I've written on the page
Look like one big blur
I guess they show just how I feel
I feel so insecure

We had an argument
It really wasn't tame
But later we made up
And decided it was quite lame

But like a flash you went into a tizzy
And said you were the one to blame
That you wanted to close the door on me
And hide away in your shame

Sister please, please settle down
And if it's all the same
There's no reason to run from me
And wallow in your pain
The answer is simple. Let me tell you why
I don't want to see you go
Let me tell you, tell you
I don't want to say goodbye

You think the misery is double
But for me it's even worse
Let's face our trouble together
Together we can break the curse

So please don't run away
Don't run away and hide
Please don't leave me
Please let me tell you why
I don't want to see you go
I don't want to say good bye

I don't want to see you go
I don't want to say goodbye
