Lyrics
Don't Cry
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I hold onto your lips a little bit longer
If I want to stay inside would you think it strange
And if I really wanna let it all go
and not save anything for tomorrow
And if tomorrow never comes at all
Kiss me like it's the last time
Love me like it's the first time
I'll kiss you like it's the last time
And I'll love you like it's the first time
I'll be tripping, can't wait til the next time
Oh, But if there isn't a next time...
Maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
Maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
I learned that it's just not worth fighting over little things
Like when I used to wait all night just to say "I'm sorry, I love you"
Oh, Tell me what would there be left to say? Nothing
What if God wants to take me away?
Oh you better...
Take me like it's the last time
Love me like it's the first time
I'll kiss you like it's the last time
And I'll love you like it's the first time
I'll be tripping, can't wait til the next time
But if there isn't a next time...
Maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
Maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
And if I only get just one thing to do
Then you know I wanna give the world to you
So baby won't you look me in the eye and pretend
And tell me that you know you're never never ever gonna go away
Just in case...
Kiss me like it's the last time
Love me like it's the first time
I'll kiss you like it's the last time
And I'll love you like it's the first time
I'll be tripping, can't wait til the next time
But if there isn't a next time...
Oh there might not be a next time
So maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
Maybe just... Don't cry Don't cry (Don't cry)
You know you wanna love me baby
Don't fight it
Just kiss me like it's the last time
Just kiss me like it's the last time
Just kiss me like it's the last time
Just kiss me like it's the last time
Just kiss me like it's the last time
