Don't Go Away
DJ Layla Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel the first drops of rain
(Of rain, of rain, of rain)
I hear they whisper your name
(Your name, your name, your name)
You and I
We are two satellites in the sky

Don't go, baby, baby, don't go
Baby, baby, don't go
Cause my heart's gonna blow
Don't go, baby, baby, don't go
Baby, baby, don't go
You're the star of my show
Don't go, baby, baby, don't go
Baby, baby, don't go
Cause my heart's gonna blow
Don't go, baby, baby, don't go
Baby, baby, don't go
You're the star of my show
Don't go, don't go, ooh

I see the shadow of time
(Of time, of time, of time)
I know that once you were mine
(Were mine, were mine, were mine)




You and I
We are two satellites in the sky

We are like two orbiting satellites in the vast universe of love, always revolving around each other.
