Little Darlin'

By Jason Payton

You don't have to leave so early in the mornin'
Don't have to drive yourself away
Though I didn't say it clearly,
I said what there was to say

Please don't leave little darlin'
Please don't leave little dear
You know our love will shine forever
And at night we have no fear

You packed your bags and your'a leavin'
You packed your bags and your feelin's are strong
Though we can't stay here together,
It doesn't mean we're moving on

Please don't leave little darlin'
Please don't leave little dear
You know our love will shine forever
And at night we have no fear

When I find myself in these times
Don't you know I've been there before
That's the point of forgiveness,
Alone outside your door

I asked the stars for their mercy
I asked the earth for a helping hand
I'll give my love to your love-light
And travel to a mountainside and stand

Please don't leave little darlin'
Please don't leave little dear
You know our love will shine forever
And at night we have no fear
