Intro:

                  
(Don't go), please stay,
                  
(Don't go), please stay.

Verse 1:

                          
If I got on my knees, and I pleased with you,
                        
Not to go, but stay in my arms.
                                            
Would you walk out the door, like you did once be-fore?
                                   
But this time, be different; would you stay?

Interlude:

                             
(Don't go), please stay, (don't go).

Verse 2:

                              
If I call out your name, like a prayer in the night,
                               
Would you leave me alone with my tears?
                                             
Knowing I, I love you so; would you still turn and go?
                                      
Or would this time, be different, in some way?

Interlude:

                 
(Don't go) please stay,
        
 (Please stay).

Bridge 1:

                        
You took me away from the rest of the world,
                                  
When you taught me to love you like this.
                             
Now I hang by a thread, in the canyon of doom,
                                   
But I still can be saved.. by your kiss...

Verse 3:

                          
If I got on my knees, and I pleased with you,
                        
Not to go, but stay in my arms.
                                            
Would you walk out the door, like you did once be-fore?
                                   
But this time, be different; would you stay?

Coda:

(Don't go,  please stay.
                   
(Don't go), (please sta-ay-ay-ay-ay...
