[Intro]

Won't you stay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Won't you stay?

[Verse 1]

You said it once, said it twice

That it hurts but I do it again

I don't change, I won't learn, 'cause I can't let it end

Said it's gone, let it be, 'cause you don't need a friend

Maybe I do

I pull and you push and we cry 'til we laugh again

I promise you, you promise me back and then why

Does it all fall apart in just a matter of time?

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'm thinking, maybe you've made up your mind

'Cause you're distant (Distant)

And I can't stand to fight no more

So please don't, make me, hurt you like I do

I don't really trust myself to leave

Even though I hear you saying, "Baby, no, no"

[Chorus]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I can't take no more of this

And I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door

Asking if you still let me in

Won't you stay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Won't you stay?

[Verse 2]

Memories of the fun that we had on photographs on the wall

Now I can't make you smile or hear you laugh anymore

And I can't help but ask, what's the point of it all?

Tell me, baby

Call it love, call it lame, call it joy, call it pain, but I fell

Call it, girl, what you may but it's painful as hell

To be here while you're there, don't need nobody else

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'm thinking maybe you've made up your mind

'Cause you're distant (Distant)

And I can't stand to fight no more

So please don't make me hurt you like I do

I don't really trust myself to leave even though you're telling me

[Chorus]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I can't take no more of this

And I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door

Asking if you still let me in

Won't you stay-ay-ay-ay-ay (Oh, don't go)

Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Won't you stay? (Ooh)

[Bridge]

If you're so meant for me and if I'm so meant for you

Why did this have to be so hard on both of us two?

If you're so meant for me and if I'm so meant for you (So meant for you)

Why did this have to be so hard on both of us two?

Still you're saying

[Chorus]

No, no, no, no, no, no no (Oh, no)

I can't take no more of this

And I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door (Knock, knock, knockin' on)

Asking if you still let me in

Won't you stay-ay-ay-ay-ay (Baby, stay)

Stay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Won't you stay?

[Outro]

Won't you stay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Stay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Won't you stay?
