Stay with me
With me
With me
With me
With me
With me
Ooh
There are sometimes when I'm feeling low
But you would always be there to comfort me
You would dry my every tear
Ahhh
Through the season and the months
We just laughed and had fun together
It was some of the best times of my life
But you said you'd stay
You said you would be there for me
You said you would never leave me
You said we'd be together forever
And that's all we really know
I wanted you to stay...
With me (With me)
As the months went by
We started to drift away
I almost didn't notice it
Ahhh
I tried to call you on my phone
But it said "this phone number does exist"
I worried through the night
And wondered through the day
But you said you'd stay
You said you would be there for me
You said you would never leave me
You said we'd be together forever
And that's all we really know
I wanted you to stay...
With me (With me)
I wanted you to stay
I said we belong together
I said you were the one
I said you're my real love
And that is all I really know
I wanted you to stay...
With me!
Oh
Lonely and forgotten
I tried to make my own dream
A dream that made me remember the good times
With me and you
As I drifted off to sleep
I swear, it felt so real
That you came back for me
But then I woke up
Saying to myself: I pray you come back...
I waited for months to come
It went by so fast
There was no sign of you
If you moved you would've called
And I would've understood
But this is just a mystery
That will live forever in my heart
I wish you had stayed...
But you said you'd stay
You said you would be there for me
You said you would never leave me
You said we'd be together forever
And that's all we really know (Yeahhhhh, yeeeeeaaaaahhh)
I wanted you to stay...
With me (With me)
I wanted you to stay
I said we belong together
I said you were the one
I said you're my real love (You're my real love)
And that is all I really know (That's all I know, yeah)
I wanted you to stay...
With me (With me)
With me (With me)
With me (With me)
With me (With me)
