I'll hold your hand till it goes cold
I'll hold my tears until you go
With all the life that leaves your bones
It soaks the purpose from my own

Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go

I love you more than you could know
You've got a hole inside my soul
It's like a mountain soaked in snow
It's in the earth the river flows

Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go
Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go

I've kept my own side of the bed
Thinking you'd be home again
I hold myself so I can sleep
My pillow holds the screams of me

Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go
Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go

So lay yourself down on my chest
'Cause I know how to hold you best
I'll keep you through these last few breaths
And kiss and love you till the end

Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go
Ohhh-ohh-oh
Please don't go
