Stay (McDonnell)

There's too many words in love songs
What do they really need to say
I could promise you anything
Tell you a thousand times
I'm not like other guys
But what I'd mean is

Stay baby
At least another day. Why don't you
Say maybe that we could find the way
To be sweeter like yesterday
You know that I'll be here
So put away your fear
And please , please don't cry
'Cause I want you to Stay

There's no such thing as forever
Not gonna waste your time with lies
No need to spill my bleeding heart to you
When all I need
Is you right here with me
Just say you're gonna

Stay baby
At least another day. Why don't you
Say maybe that we could find the way
To be sweeter like yesterday
You know you hold the keys
To put my heart at ease
So tell me baby...

Don't you ever wonder
If there's a,
A better way to be
And if you decide
To put your hands in mine
Oh baby you can bet
That I'll forget
My stupid pride and...

Stay baby
You wouldn't be so cruel
Stay baby
Don't make me the fool
Just don't leave me standing in the rain again
Still holding on
So what are you gonna

Stay baby
Are you gonna stay baby
It'd be so, so hard without you
Let's not be lonely anymore

Ooh ooh, baby, baby It's alright now
Ooh ooh, baby, baby...... Well you know...
I gotta stop, and tell you what I'm feeling
It's alright now

If you're gonna be anywhere in this world
You should make sure that it's right here with me honey
