Don't let her leave when she's lying next to you
Softly and sweetly; listening to your every breath

When she's ready to stumble out of the back door
Her pride weighing her down
And her shoes in her hand
Don't let her go

As she's sorting through the pile of clothes on the floor
Searching for her favorite sweatshirt
Glancing back to see you're still asleep
Don't let her leave

When she starts yelling and throwing things
Don't let her go
She says she can't take it anymore and needs time on her own
You grab her and never let her go

Don't let her wash you out of her hair
Or your taste from her lips
Or your scent lingering on her soft skin

When she runs from your sight
And screams she hates you
Don't let her leave

Run your fingers through her hair
Kiss her cheek softly
When you know she can't leave without you
Don't let her go
