Just a second ago we were laughing and we were joking
And everything seems fine, you smile and touch my hand
Just a second ago that was how it was
And then it changed, the world slips out of view
Just a second ago we were lovers still and all was well
Something fell away
And everything turns cold
I just don't know why it all falls apart
I just know it breaks my heart
Hold me now, please hold me now
Don't turn away, don't walk away from me and you
Please hold me now and hold me tight
Don't turn away from me
Don't say it wasn't meant to be
I just can't bear it when you turn away
I just don't understand how things can be this way
How all the love can disappear
When it was there just a minute ago, just a second ago
I just don't understand and I don't want to understand
I just want to take your hand and make it all alright again
And I just want you to know
That nothing could ever change the way that I feel for you
The love that's in my heart, it runs too deep to go away
Believe me, I will always be here
I'll always be near, that's what I promise you
So hold me now, please hold me now
Don't turn away, don't walk away
Don't walk away from me and you
Just hold me now and hold me tight
Don't turn away from me
Don't walk away and say it wasn't meant to be
Please don't say it wasn't meant to be
I just can't bear it when you turn away
So please don't turn away
Just hold me now
Don't turn away, don't walk away
Don't walk away from me and you
Just hold me now and hold me tight
Don't turn away
And say it wasn't meant to be
Please don't say it wasn't meant to be.
I just can't bear it when you turn away
So please don't turn away
Just hold me now, please hold me now
Don't turn away, don't walk away
Don't walk away from me and you
Just hold me now and hold me tight
Don't turn away from me
Don't walk away and say it wasn't meant to be
Please don't say it wasn't meant to be
I just can't bear it when you turn away
So please don't turn away
I just can't bear it when you turn away
So please don't turn away from me
