Lyrics

Stay

How could I have been so blind that I couldn't see
What we had was meant to last forever
I took our perfect summer love
And turned it in to stormy weather

You say you're leaving but please don't walk away,
Look at me, can't ya see there's something that I gotta say

I still want you. Please don't take your love away
I gotta have you. I can't take a single day
Without you in my life, make a promise tonight
Won't you say hey hey
You'll Stay.

I'll admit that I was wrong
So please don't leave, sit down and close the door
I hadn't lived until you gave me that first kiss
All I want right now is to have ten thousand more

They say time can heal a wound but it leaves a scar
To remind us that the pain makes us who we are

I still want you. Please don't take your love away
I gotta have you. I can't take a single day
Without you in my life, make a promise tonight
Won't you say hey hey
You'll Stay.

Ride ...

You say you're leaving but please don't walk away,
We've got something special, everything will be okay

I still want you. Please don't take your love away
I gotta have you. I can't take a single day
Without you in my life, make a promise tonight
That you'll lay in my arms and let me just hold ya tight
Give us one more day
Won't you say hey hey
You'll Stay.
Please Stay
Stay
