a duet with my former self Lyrics

Please don't go away

Because I need you

To stay

Please don't go away

Because I want you

To stay

He took one look

At his sons' fragile heart

As he stepped into the night

Never been the type

To walk out

But this just didn't feel right

Turns the keys

And the engine lights a blinking

"Who thought leaving

Would take this much thinking"

Pulls away out the drive

Sees the kid, feels the child inside

As they say

Please don't go away

Because I need you

To stay

Please don't go away

Because I want you

To stay

As he drives past the first road sign

He thinks of everything he left behind

The only family he ever had

Cause his mum was never there

He got no love from his dad

He sees a kid just sitting there

All alone in the abyss

Pulls over just a little bit

Cause he didn't want to miss the things he missed

The child looked up

And with those tearful eyes

Astute in their gaze

He razed a hand to cup his father's face

And said "Thank you do didn't leave"

I'll never go away

If that's what you want me to say

Please know that I'll always stay

No, I'll never I'll never go away

Because you need me

You need me to stay

Because you want me

You want me to stay

Just know I'll never

I'll never go away

Because you need me

You need me to stay

You'll never, never go away

Cause I need you I need you to stay
