Lyrics:

Don't leave me now Now that I need you How blue and lonely I'd be If you should say we're through Don't break my heart This heart that loves you They'll just be nothing for me If you should leave me now What good is dreamin' If I must dream all alone by myself Without you darling My arms would gather dust Come to these arms These arms that need you Don't close your eyes to my plea Don't leave me now
