Stay

I been sittin' here starin'
at the clock on the wall,
and I been layin' here prayin',
prayin' she won't call
It's just another call from home,
and you'll get it and be gone,
and 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,
for the next time we'll be here
seems like a million years,
and I 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 tired of bein' lonely
Don't I give you 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 tellin' 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,
and I don't like bein' used,
and I'm tired of waitin'
 
It's too much pain to have to bear
to love a man you have to share
 
Why don't you stay?
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of bein' lonely
Don't I give you 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?
 
I can't take it any longer,
but my will is gettin' stronger,
and I think I know just what I have to do
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 wanna leave her bed for mine...
 
Why don't you stay?
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of bein' lonely
You can't give me what I need
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?
 
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh...
