About This Song


I had a dream I was seated center, in the middle row, of an otherwise empty school auditorium, and the Beatles were on stage performing the chorus of this song. Incredible right? I went around the next day singing the thing to everyone, thinking someone must have heard it, but ... no one had. So I knocked off the verses and bridge, and ... presto ...

V1
I’VE GOT MY ARMS WRAPPED AROUND A DREAM
‘CAUSE I’VE GOT NO ONE TO HOLD
PEOPLE TALKIN’ AND THEY’RE TELLIN’ ME
THINGS THAT I OUGHT TO KNOW!

CHORUS
DON’T…GO AWAY (WILL YOU STAY?)
‘CAUSE I STILL LOVE YOU—OOH, OOH, OOH
AND I KNOW YOU, LOVE ME TOO—OOH
DON’T…GO AWAY (DON’T BE AFRAID)
‘CAUSE I REALLY WANT YOU—OOH, OOH, OOH
AND I KNOW YOU, WANT ME TOO—OOH… (DO—OOH)

VII
YOUR STEPPIN’ OUT ON ME IS SUCH A SIN
WANNA GO OUT ON YOUR OWN
‘CAUSE BABY I DON’T KNOW JUST WHERE ‘YOU BEEN’
OR WHEN YOU’RE COMING HOME!

CHORUS REPEATS

BRIDGE
CONCENTRATE, DON’T YIELD, TO DISTRACTION
ESCALATE OUR FEELINGS OF AFFECTION
IT’S NICE TO CONTEMPLATE
BUT WHAT ABOUT OUR EMOTIONS?
HESITATE AND LOSE ANOTHER MOMENT…SO

CHORUS REPEATS AND OUT
