Five Little Letters

I’ve never been the one to beg someone to stay But "please"

was the only word I knew that day Whatever it takes,

I know we can find a way

Before all these beautiful memories fade away

(please stay) I’ve never prayed for anything so hard before

But I caught myself begging the universe for more If it can

hear my voice knocking on heaven's door All I really need is

a chance to heal and restore (hummmmm)

It was right on the edge

of losing you that night

I realized you're the only thing I wanted in my sight

"I can't," you said,

and took away the light

Two simple words, five letters,

ended the fight

I met you when I wasn't even looking for love

But day by day,

you became all I was thinking of

And right when I opened up,

fits like a glove

That was the exact moment you flew away like a dove

(flew away) It was right on the edge

of losing you that night

I realized you're the only thing I wanted in my sight

"I can't," you said,

and took away the light

Two simple words, five letters,

ended the fight (ended the fight) Five little letters,

fading in the dark Nothing's ever left such a painful mark
