This beautiful song was written by Danny Whitten and was a big hit for Scottish singer Rod Stewart back in the 1970's. It was covered (recorded) again in 1988 by British band 'Everything but the Girl.' Here they are performing it. Don't mind the bad fashion, just enjoy the song.

If I stay here just a little bit ,
If I stay here, won't you to my heart, whoa, heart?
If I stand all , will the shadow hide the of my heart;
