Back to yesterday
Safe tonight
I feel the sun creepin' up like tick tock
I'm trying to keep you in my head, but if not
We'll just keep running from tomorrow
With our lips locked
Yeah, you've got me begging, begging
Baby, please don't go
If I wake up tomorrow, will you still be here?
I don't know, if you feel the way I do
If you leave I'm gon' to find you
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't, baby please don't
Baby, please don't run away from my bed
Start another day stay instead
I feel the sun creepin' up like tick tock
I'm trying to keep you in my head, but if not
We'll just keep running from tomorrow
With our lips locked
Yeah, you've got me begging, begging
Baby, please don't go
If I wake up tomorrow, will you still be here?
I don't know, if you feel the way I do
If you leave I'm gon' to find you
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't, baby please don't
I stay running from tomorrow
I stay running from tomorrow
I stay running from tomorrow
Said, I stay running from tomorrow
Baby, please don't go (please don't go)
If I wake up tomorrow, will you still be here?
I don't know, if you feel the way I do (oh woah, woah-woah)
If you leave I'm gon' to find you (I'm gon, I'm gon' I'm gonna find you)
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go (don't leave me, leave me)
Baby, please don't go, go, go, go
Baby, please don't, baby please don't, baby please don't runaway

The singer is begging his lover not to go, and he promises that he will chase after her if she does, indicating how important she is to him. The second verse of the song further emphasizes this theme of running away, but this time, the singer wants his lover to stay with him, "Please, don't run away from my bed, start another day stay instead."
Overall, the song Please Don't Go by Mike Posner is a deeply affecting song that explores the theme of love, obsession, and the desire to escape.
