“I will give anything – take all that’s mine. Change what I am my hair, my clothes, my life – don’t say goodbye.”

The ongoing theme where she knows something’s on his mind. She doesn’t know what it is or what the future holds, but the one thing she is sure of is that she is determined and will give everything to keep him by her side. She's committed and she's strong and will do whatever she can to keep their relationship together.


I know something’s on your mind
You’d tell me, but can’t find the time
You won’t look me in the eye
Don’t leave this way, give me one more day

Chorus:

And I will swim the river against the tide
Sail the ocean till I’m by your side
I will give anything, take all that’s mine
Change what I am, my hair, my clothes, my life
Don’t say goodbye

Say anything that’s on your mind
I’ll understand, you know I’ll try
You still care – don’t deny it
Don’t leave this way, give me one more day

Chorus:
