Stay (The Voice Performance) Songtext

von Gwen Sebastian

I been sitting starin at the clock on the wall

I've been layin here prayin prayin she won't call

It's just another coffee mornin you'll get and be gone
An I'll be cryin

And I'll be beggin you baby beg you not to leave

But I'll be left here waitin with my heart on my sleeve
Oh for the next we'll be here seems like a million years
And I'll think I'm dyin
What do I have to do to make you see
She can't love you like me

Why don't you stay

I'm down on my knees i'm so tied of being lonely

Don't I give what you need?

When she calls you to go
There is one thing you should know

We don't have to live this way
Baby why don't you stay

You keep telling me baby there will come a time
When you will leave her arms and forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth
I don't like bein used and I'm tired of waiting

I can't take it any longer but my will is getting stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do yeah

I can't waste another minute after all that I've put in it
I've given you my best why does she get the best of you

So the next time you find you want to leave her bed for mine
Why don't you stay
I'm up off my knees and I'm so tired of bein lonely
You can't give me what I need
So when she begs you not to go
There is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby why don't you stay
