You got in so late, it's sunday morning Said that you were leaving, letting go of us Where did we go wrong, oh And now you say you're leaving California Gotta head back East and want to leave tonight Pack your things and go But if you run now Wait, I won't be alright Even if the sun crashes into us I won't let go, I won't let go And I can be your light, stay with me tonight I won't let go, I won't let go Pick up all the pieces, fight to hold on Put 'em back together, do it all for love, oh Never let it go, oh yeah 'Cause I don't need a reason just to hold ya One more of your teasing look you in the eyes, oh Oh, baby please don't go, oh yeah But if you run now Wait I won't be alright Even if the sun crashes into us I won't let go, I won't let go And I can be your light, stay with me tonight I won't let go, I won't let go Now you say you're leaving California
