[Verse 1]

You know that you're doing lots of things that ain't right

You're out with a different party almost every night

And you're making me look like a crazy fool

So, why do I have these doubts about leaving you?

[Chorus]

Because my heart tells me, "Stay" but my pride tells me, "Go"

But how can I leave you when I love you so?

Which way shall I turn? I'd sure like to know

My heart tells me, "Stay" but my pride tells me, "Go"

[Verse 2]

I'd be so much better off to drive you from my mind

And make you a memory that I'd like to leave behind

I know that these heartaches are what you will put me through

So, why do I have these doubts about leaving you?

[Chorus]

Because my heart tells me, "Stay" but my pride tells me, "Go"

So, how can I leave you when I love you so?

Which way shall I turn? I'd sure like to know

My heart tells me, "Stay" but my pride tells me, "Go"
