A little bit just a little bit... (x4) World's on turn around Music make no sound Where is sweetness found Where love is gone Sun don't come around Don't make a sound Where can love be found If your heart won't feel Shivers Up and down my spine Breaker Not on my mind A little bit just a little bit... (x4) How could it end this way Don't leave me, love me Just a little bit longer (x3) They don't turn tonight Morning don't bring light Where is sweetness found Where love is gone Won't you stay tonight Let the truth shine bright Where can love be found If your heart won't feel Memories Emotions that we share Teardrops Signing my face How could it end this way Don't leave me, love me Just a little bit longer (x4) A little bit just a little bit... (x4)
