Please Don't Go
Nayobe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's hidden anger in your face
There had been trouble and it comes as no surprise
You say tonight someone has taken someone else's life
Not much will come from out of anger and revenge
But tell me when we'll
I'm begging you please
I'm on my hands and knees
Please don't go, please don't go
Don't go there tonight
It just isn't right
You may not come back to me
Our future you'll never see
Your throwing my life plans away
Please don't go
The only thing we have that we can call our own
Is this sweet love that we share
But if you leave tonight you may not come home
And that's just one thought I can't bear
Lets run away from here, to some place far away
Cause if we stay our love won't last another day
Don't throw my love aside
Because of your foolish pride
Please don't go, please don't go
Don't go there tonight
It just isn't right
You may not come back to me
Our future you'll never see
Your throwing my life plans away
Please don't go
I wanted you to stay
But still you went away
Together we can run
Now look what they had done
I'll never feel your touch again
I'm left to see this tragic end
Your throwing our love life away
Please don't go, please don't
Please don't go, I'm begging you
Please don't go, please don't
Please don't go, I'm begging you
Please don't go, please don't
Please don't go, I'm begging you
Please don't go, please don't
Please don't go, I'm begging you

In the 80’s in San Francisco, we all went out clubbing on the weekends and dance all night. There was a after hour club called the Trocadero that stayed open until 8 or 9 am.and where everyone who still wanted to party went after being at other clubs. You had to be a member and not everyone got to experience this club and it was a hat underground club with a great space and sound system.
It would be packed and all the best dancers in SF Bay Area showed up to dance all night. They also played the best dance music in the west coast. It was our “Paradise Garage” before house music was being played.
I could still see the excitement on the dance floor when certain songs came on and all the dancers knew it was time to express yourself to the fullest with your moves. I remember one time when this song came on and sent a charge to all the dancers. I was dancing with this regular name Debbie and she had on the sequin dress with shingles hanging off it. So when she moved to this song, her dress moved to the beat. We used wait for the crowd to thin out after 3 pm. That’s when the djs knew only the serious dancers were left and now the club was only half full. That’s when the djs played the best tracks and no longer having to please the main crowd. That’s when the real dancing happened and the dance floor was only left with serious dancers and the floor was like a stage for dancers.
Bc I am Chinese, but grew up in the hood, most that I bet in the clubs, never seen a Chinese person knowing how to freestyle dance. Once this friend that used to be a dancer for the SF Ballet said, I just love watching you dance. I was so flattered bc I never took a dance class of any kind and coming from a ballerina, that was a huge compliment.
I miss those days and the excitement of going out to a club and dancing the night away and taking your mind off the other problems in life.
Thank you Trocadero for the best dance experience I ever had.

Love love love this song. The voice of an angel. The mesmerizing beat. Brings me back to the 80’s club life. Flashing lights. Cigarette smoke and perfume in the air. Everyone dressed to impress. Simpler times. No cellphones. No computer. No facebook. No worries.

Really no kidding ...lloll ..I thought it was you or a few other like fascination, or Judy Torres, maybe if she had sung a few more, maybe.
@TheFirstCorina
@@raybon7939 Thank you for the love. For me she just doesn't get the love and respect she deserves. You didn't hear more but it's not because she didn't do more... Unfortunately, people tend to believe what they are told... Hopefully, she'll write a book one day ;)
