[brentalfloss - The Songwriters' Duet lyrics]
This next one is about a guy you may all know
He's out west making it big
This is for you Rob
I don't wanna turn the page ooh
Let me look at you one last
Time to see your face
I don't wanna look away
I just wanna hear you say
That you're gonna stay
Let me hold you one last time
Don't you know I'm gonna cry
Five more minutes till you leave
My life for too long
This one's about a girl I
Knew back in New York
I can't count the times
You've told me how we would never
Be what we are now i had to leave
I had to go somewhere
But my heart's still there
And now it's much too late
I'm sure you're moving on
The sun has set on you and me
And I'm never gonna see another dawn
As I watch you walk away
All I want is one more day
One more second in your eyes
Now I have to turn that page
Turn my back on yesterday
So I don't have to watch us die
Thanks for thinking I was something
Don't you know I'll miss your eyes
Guess I'll always have the memories
Of you -looking back at me
I can't count the times
You've told me how we would never
Be what we are now i had to leave
I had to go somewhere
But my heart's still there
And now it's much too late
I'm sure you're moving on
The sun has set on you and me
And I'm never gonna see another dawn
I don't wanna turn the page ooh
Let me look at you one last
Time to see your face
I don't wanna look away
I just wanna hear you say
That you're gonna stay
Let me hold you one last time
Don't you know I'm gonna cry
Five more minutes till you leave
My life for too long
As I watch you walk away
All I want is one more day
One more second in your eyes
Now I have to turn that page
Turn my back on yesterday
So I don't have to watch us die
He's out west making it big
This is for you Rob
I don't wanna turn the page ooh
Let me look at you one last
Time to see your face
I don't wanna look away
I just wanna hear you say
That you're gonna stay
Let me hold you one last time
Don't you know I'm gonna cry
Five more minutes till you leave
My life for too long
This one's about a girl I
Knew back in New York
I can't count the times
You've told me how we would never
Be what we are now i had to leave

But my heart's still there
