I WON"T GO

Words and Music by James Graff

VERSE 1:

You asked me over tonight
Something didn't seem right

We sit and talk for a while

Till you lose your smile

'n' when you tell me we're through

I just can't believe in you

And when you ask me to go

I just don't know

not till I'm through

Talkin' this out with you

 

CHORUS 1:

I Won't Go
I Won't Go

Oh no I won't

 

VERSE 2:

You won't tell me what's wrong

Just that we don't belong

What did you expect me to do

Just give up on you

And when you ask me to leave

I just can't believe

And when you ask me to go

There's one reply that know

not till I'm through

talkin this out with you

I won't go

I won't go

oh no I won't

I won't go
I won't go

No I won't go

BRIDGE:
All I want to do is talk this out wth you

You expect me to go

'N' I just scream no.

And then you start to cry

And I wonder why

Until you say to me

What you really need

Is me here by you

So now I'll promise you


CHORUS 3:

I won't go

I won't go

oh no I won't

I won't go
I won't go

No

I won't go away

I'm here to stay

I Won't Go

I Won't Go

NEW VERSION of the words

(rewritten when my memory failed me and I didn't have any old recordings or lyric sheets to refer to)

I WON"T GO

VERSE:
You asked me over tonight

And something didn’t seem right

We sit and talk for awhile

Till you lose your smile

Then from out of the blue

You tell me we’re through

And when you say I should just leave

I just can’t believe

 

Not till I’m through

Talking this out with you

 

CHORUS:

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

Not till I’m through

Talkin’ this out with you

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

Not till I’m through

Talkin’ this out with you

 

VERSE:

You tell me this is the end

But we could still be friends

If I had to hide all my feelings inside

I just don’t think I’d survive

But you still won’t tell me what’s wrong

Just that we don’t belong

So when you tell me to leave

I still can’t believe

 

Not till I’m through

Talking this out with you

 

CHORUS:

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

Not till I’m through

Talkin’ this out with you

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

Till we’re really through

I just don’t belive you…

 

BRIDGE:
Then you push me away

But I just have to stay

And when you insist that I go

I just scream: “No!”

 

And then you start to cry

And I’m wondering why

Until I see through your tears

All of your lonely fears

And you finally admit to me

That what you really need

Is me ALWAYS here by you

So now I’ll promise you

 

CHORUS:

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

I’ll never be through

Talkin’ things out with you

I Won’t Go, I Won’t Go

Not till I’m through

Making a life with you

I won’t go away

I’m here to stay

I won’t go
