[Intro] Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, baby... 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 Till we laugh again I Promise you, you promise me back and then why Does it all fall apart in just a matter of time? [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 (no, no, no no no, no no) I can't take no more of this Still I'm knock, knock, knocking on your door Asking if you'll still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, baby... 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 [Chorus] So I'm thinking maybe You've made up your mind Coz 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 (no, no, nonono, nono) I can't take no more of this Still I'm knock, knock, knocking on your door Asking if you'll still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, baby... ay, ay, ay, ay... ay, ay, ay, ay...) Won't you stay? [Verse 2] 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? Why did this have to be so hard on both of us two? [Outro] Still you're sayin' no, no (no, no, nonono, nono) I can't take no more of this Still I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door Asking if you'll still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, baby... ay, ay, ay, ay... ay, ay, ay, ay...) Won't you stay Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, baby... ay, ay, ay, ay... ay, ay, ay, ay...) Won't you stay?
