Lyrics for I Just Can't Let You Say Good-Bye

I had not planned on seeing you I was afraid of what I'd do But pride is strong, here am I And I just can't let that you say goodbye Please have no fear, you're in no harm As long as you're here in my arms But you can't leave so please don't try But I just can't let that you say goodbye What force behind your evil mind Can let your lips speak so unkind To one who loves as much as I But I just can't let you say goodbye The flesh around your throat is pale Intended by my fingernails Please don't scream and please don't cry 'Cause I just can't let that you say goodbye Your voice is still, it speaks no more You'll never hurt me anymore Death is a friend to love and I 'Cause now you'll never say goodbye.
