If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you,
Not to go but to stay in my arms,
Would you walk out the door,
Like you did once before?
This time,
Be different,
Please stay,
don't go.
If I call out your name like a prayer,
Would you leave me alone with my tears?
Knowing I need you so,
Would you still turn and go?
This time,
Be different,
Please stay,
don't go
Please stay.
I loved you before I even knew your name,
E A (G-Am7)
But then you came back after leaving me one time,
I knew that the heartache would start
If I called out your name like a song,
That was written for you,
You alone
Would you still hurt my pride?
Oh hey, how I cried
This time,
Be different,
Please stay,
Please stay, (don't go)
Please stay, don't go
Please stay.
