Intro: Oh, I don't need moonlight and roses I don't want you to stand here and tell me lies I know what you're feeling, I think I know why Please don't let this love go by It's so hard to think in the long run And it's so easy to stand back and drift apart There's nothing you'd ask me that I wouldn't try Please don't let this love go by Well, don't let this love go by Don't you feed another flame, and let the first one die You might believe you can take it in your stride But these things go bad every time And I feel a whole lot of heartache and hard times Coming on like a fast train for you and me There's a change in your voice, a stranger in your eyes Please don't let this love go by Don't let this love go by Don't you feed another flame, and let the first one die You might believe you can take it in your stride But these things go bad every time N.C. And darling, I don't need moonlight and roses And I don't want you to stand here and tell me lies I know what you're feeling, I think I know why Please don't let this love go by Please don't let this love go by
