[Verse 1:] I saw her face In a dream last night And it hurt so much Yes, it hurt so much She was in my mind As I drank my wine And now I count the costs Of the one I lost She went away To a different place And she was never to return Whatever happened to that girl?
[Chorus, backing vocals by Dawn Zee & Denise Johnson:] Sometimes you don't know what you've got You think you're better than the rest And the world belongs to you But you're nothing but a fool If you can hold her in your hands If you can feel her in your heart Don't ever let her run away Don't ever let her drift away Cause it will break you later on When you're left there on your own Don't ever let her slip away Don't ever let her drift away
[Verse 2:] It's a crying shame It caused so much pain It's sad that way It was me that day Cause I turned you away Like I didn't know who you were I was such a fool I was so cruel And the years went by And without a word of lie I still love you But what can I do?
[Chorus] Hold her in your hand Feel her in your heart Don't ever let her drift away (let her drift away)
[Chorus] Hold her in your hand Feel her in your heart Don't ever let her drift away (let her drift away)
