I got your letter I felt so scared to Pick up the paper knife and read within I read the contents I got what you meant I know its hard for you but don't give in Maybe, maybe slow things go fast Maybe, maybe its all in the past Chorus: Oh oh if you need me don't let go - oh (You know I'll never give up on you) Oh oh if you need me don't let go - oh (You know I won't give up on you) oo oo - oo oo oo - oo You know I'll never give up on you I phoned the station For information To try and get the times of trains to York And on the platform I saw your hatform A kind of halo in the crowd - crush talk But baby baby don't run away Maybe, maybe it's just today Repeat Chorus I saw your sad face You dropped your suitcase And I appreciate the state you're in You mustn't hurry You mustn't worry I know it's hard on you but don't give in Maybe, maybe slow things go fast Maybe, maybe its all in the past
