If I got on my knees
And I pleaded with you
Not to go
But to stay in my arms
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before
This time be different
Please stay don't go
If I call out your name
Like a prayer
Would you leave me alone
With my tears
Knowing I need you so
Would you still
Turn and go
This time be different
Please stay
Don't go please stay
I loved you before
I even knew your name
I wanted to give you
My heart
But when you came back
After leaving me one time
Oh, I knew, yes I knew
That the heartaches
Would start
If I called out
Your name like a song
That was written for you
You alone
Would you still
Hurt my pride
Oh, hey, how I cried
This time be different
Please stay
Oh, this time
Be different in some way
Don't go please stay
You know
I'll always love you
Darling
Please stay
