Don't Go
Happy Days Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I thought you were everything, I thought you were the one... But once again I'm still blind, By the fake mask of life. Again I felt for its trap, ...Again I felt for its lies... And now you are leaving, And I'm begging you to stay... What we had was something special. What's going on? Its getting hard to breathe. I'm torn open, I'm on my knees, asking you to stay and not to leave. Please Don't go, Please Don't go...
