Stay
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What can I do to make you think that I am just not over you?
What can I say to make it right, again?
Where can I go to take a lost soul and get it safe again?
If I dont have you then Im left alone tonight
Wont you stay, stay, stay
Dont let this slip away
Not today
Wont you cut me down
You can run around
All over town
Just as long as you stay
When did I ever take advantage of your sweet desire?
How could you think that Im so cold, to you?
Did I freeze you out of every situation?
You can drop the cards that Im gonna fold
Wont you stay, stay, stay
Dont walk out on me today
Not today
You can cut me down
You can run around
All over town
Just as long as you stay (as long as you stay)
I wont be a lesson, I wouldnt be (as long as you stay)
When were good
Then were real good (as long as you stay)
You take my hand and you steal my heart
And honey, hearing that to you was just a start
You can kick me up, but you cant break us apart
Wont you stay, stay, stay
Dont walk out on me today
Not today
You could cut me down
Or you could stay, stay, stay
Dont walk out on me today
Not today
You could cut me down
You can run around
All over town
Just as long as you stay
Just as long as you stay
Yeah, you can run around
All over town
You get me up all night
I only wanna make it right
As long as you stay
