All night through
You slip your fingers from my hand
And then you take a few steps away.
As you turn away, I hear you say
‘It’s got too late and I must go’.
But I have so much more to ask you.
My head’s full of things I want to know.
Stay for a while, just a little short while
And let’s stay all night through...
Because the moon is riding out in the bay for you
And the palms in the breeze gently sway,
Stay here by me, all night through, tonight!
Do you have something you need to do?
Is there anyone who’s waiting for you?
Come on, baby dear, stay by me here,
Just a little longer tonight...
Because the waves are playing a lullaby for you,
And the stars are shining from on high,
Stay here by me, all night through, tonight!
With your eyes ‘I’m sorry’ you say
As your slow footsteps, they lead you away,
Oh, come on, come on, stay by me here,
Just a little longer tonight...
(Spoken)
Oh baby, don’t go now. Please stay...
till the daylight comes...
