You got a call in the middle of the night,
‘Said you had a two a.m. flight,
To Tokyo, to Tokyo
And I said, please don’t go
You know you’ll never be back
You know you’ll never, ever be back
 
You’d leave me holding on, you’d leave me holding on,
To something I can’t,
You’ll leave me holding on, to empty promises, to golden dreams
And a broken heart,
You’d leave me holding on to you,
Please don’t go, you can stay, just hold on to my hand,
And we can be together,
If you go you’ll leave me holding on, oh holding on, to crystal clear,
Memories of you,
You’d leave me holding on, to broken promises, golden dreams, and you,
Just grab my hand and hold on, hold on for all that you love,
Hold on and I’ll pull you closer to me
 
Please don’t go, you’d leave me holding on to thoughts of you,
You’d leave me holding on, oh you’d leave me holding on to something I can’t,
Please don’t go, you’d leave me missing you,
You’d leave me all alone,
You’d leave me holding dear, the memories of you,
You’d leave me holding on,
You’d leave me holding on,
You’d leave me holding on to you while you’re gone,
Oh, you’d leave me holding on,
Oh, you’d leave me holding on,
Oh, you’d leave me holding on to you while you’re gone,
To you while you’re gone
