In Reno town for a few dollars down
You can buy yourself a separation
And say good-bye to the love
And the life that we shared together
Sign it away with a stroke of a hotel pen
All of the dreams that we had
Will be gone forever

I can't believe we're through

I won't give up on you

How can I stand aside
And watch a good love die ?
Don't go down to Reno

Stay another night
One night and you may find

I'll make you change your mind

Don't go down to Reno
Stay a little bit longer

Try to remember the day
When the bells were chimin'
Picture the clothes that I wore
And I know you'll smile
Think of the nights when we knew
That our star was climbin'
I can't throw that away

I've got to make you stay

How can I stand aside
