Stay
(Perkin)
You’ve been taking me over
I’ve been taking you down
Now
you’re saying that things have changed
And you don’t want me
around
I’ve been
chasing after you
But you’re running away
You should see we’re meant for
each other
So I’m asking you to stay
Why do the bad things happen to me?
First I’m stuck with you
then you want to leave
So I say stay
Oh stay
I want to
be with nobody else
Thinking about it ruins my health
So I say
stay
Please stay
You seem like your mind’s made up
Maybe I’ve got no hope
But
if I let this opportunity slide
Then I couldn’t cope
Why don’t
you reconsider?
You could learn to love me
After all I’ve put up with
you
And I’ve done it graciously
But now it’s gone and happened again
I’ve found someone who
just wants to be friends
So I say stay
Please
stay
I cannot
be with anyone else
Thinking about it ruins my health
So I say
stay
Please stay
Stay
Oh stay
I’ve been
thinking it over
And it seems clear to me
There’s only problems when we’re
together
And that doesn’t happen frequently
If we work on
a rota
We could split up the rooms
Maybe see each other on Sundays
Or
whenever there is a blue moon
Why do
the bad things happen to me?
First I’m stuck with you then you want to
leave
So I say stay
Oh stay
I want to be
with somebody else
But thinking ‘bout it ruins my health
So I say
stay
Please stay
Stay
Oh stay
