So much time has passed us by,
Another year has come and gone.
Still you are everything to me,
And you're still so beautiful, my love.1
Tomorrow you're off for good,
Leaving your past behind to go off into the world.
You're making a fresh new start with college,
You're out to become worth more than just a simple girl.2
So take my hand, Love, and lead me back into the dark.
Hold me close, for we have just one more night.
Let's make every last moment last, my darling;
Promise there'll be no regrets in the morning light.3
The dawn will come, and off you'll go
After one last kiss goodbye.
I'll smile and wave you off, watch your sillouette fade,
And you'll never know the tears I will cry.4
So take my hand, Love, and lead me back into the dark.
Hold me close, for we have just one more night.
Let's make every last moment last, my darling;
Promise there'll be no regrets in the morning light.5
I won't forget you and the love you gave-
I make this my solemn vow.
But let's stop looking at tomorrow,
And focus on who we still are right now.6
Take my hand, Love, and lead me back into the dark.
Hold me close, for we have just one more night.
Let's make every last moment last, my darling;
Promise there'll be no regrets in the morning light.7
So much time has passed us by,
Another year has come and gone.
Still you mean everything to me,
And you're still so beautiful, my love...
