[Verse 1]

I just wanna impress you

You're an ace of spades

And tell me, can you see through

That I need you here with me?

Cause I've been searchin' for you everywhere

All hours of the day

Won't you come home with me?

You're shining like a diamond

And I wanna keep you safe

[Chorus]

So come a little closer

I want you to stay a while

We're not getting any younger

So why don't you stay a while?

My hopes and my dreams

Everything that I need

Is in your hands, don't you see?

I want you to stay a while

Stay a while

[Verse 2]

I'm sorry that I hurt you

Haven't called in days

And the time apart, it hurts too

Are we headed separate ways?

I don't wanna think of you with someone else

Doing the things you used to do with me

Yeah, I can't let you go now

It's too much for me to take

[Chorus]

So come a little closer

I want you to stay a while

We're not getting any younger

So why don't you stay a while?

My hopes and my dreams

Everything that I need

Is in your hands, don't you see?

I want you to stay a while

Stay a while

[Refrain]

(Stay a while)

[Chorus]

So come a little closer

I want you to stay a while

We're not getting any younger

So why don't you stay a while?

My hopes and my dreams

Everything that I need

Is in your hands, don't you see?

I want you to stay a while

Stay a while

[Outro]

Sorry that I hurt you (I want you to stay a while)

And the time apart, it hurts too (so why don't you stay a while?)

My hopes and my dreams

Everything that I need

Is in your hands, don't you see?

I want you to stay a while

Stay a while

(Stay a while)
