Don't Walk Away
Diamond Dawn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Face to face, you say that we′re strong
But I know something's wrong
Tell me why, we run into trouble
Out of hope when we know
We can make it better
We can make it right
Give me one more day
Give me one more night

Don′t walk away, tell me you'll stay
I will be there, every hour everyday
And we've got to dare
′Cause I know you care
About what we′ve got together
You've got to know
That you′d run back into my arms again

Danger, in the arms of the night
Temptations calling
But you're feeling the fright
A cold wind blowing
And you know you can′t pretend
Just 'cause everything′s not perfect
It has to end
We can make it better
We can make it right
We've got more than tomorrow
Baby hold on tight

Don't walk away, tell me you′ll stay
I will be there, every hour everyday
And we′ve got to dare
'Cause I know you care
About what we′ve got together
You've got to know
That you′d run back into my arms again

Gimme one more day
Gimme one more night
Yeah, yeah...
I will be there
And we've got to dare
′Cause I know you care
About what we've got together
Oh, yeah...
Tell me you'll stay, every hour everyday
And we′ve got to dare




You′ve got to know
That you'd run back into my armas again
