C5   D5
I know you loved her
            G5
A long time ago
                C5   D5
Even now in my arms
                      G5
You still want her I know

But darlin this time
Let your memories die
When you hold me tonight
Don't close your eyes

Chorus-

                   C5
Don't close your eyes
           D5
Let it be me
                   G5
Don't pretend its her
     D5        E5
In some fantasy
               C5
Darlin' just once
                   D5
Let yesterday just go
                       G5
And you'll find more love
      D5             E5
Than you've ever known
                C5
Just hold me tight
                    D (don't strum )
When you love me tonight
                   G5
Don't close your eyes

Maybe i've been a fool
Holding on all this time
Lying here in your arms
knowing she's in your mind
But I keep hoping someday
That you'll see the light
Let it be me tonight
Don't close your eyes

Chorus-
Don't close your eyes
Let it be me
Don't pretend its her
In some fantasy
Darlin' just once
Let yesterday just go
And you'll find more love
Than you've ever known
Just hold me tight
When you love me tonight
Don't close your eyes

Chorus-
Don't close your eyes
Let it be me
Don't pretend its him
In some fantasy
Darlin' just once
Let yesterday go
You'll find more love
Than you've ever known
Just hold me tight
When you love me tonight
Don't close your eyes
