Lyrics
Please, stay with me now
Don't you let me go
I'll make it somehow
I got to let you know
That I'll make it somehow, someway
Though I wait on the day
What I'm doing's gotta pay
Someway
Somehow
Like a little baby when he cries
It's 'cause something's on his mind
This world's full of lies
You and me, are one of a kind
The good lord will stand behind every step
We are blind to fate
That's life
That's life
Stay
Stay
Won't you please, stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
You can fix it, but you can't make it work
Where there's pain, there's got to be hurt
And the green grass grows from the dirt
Yeah, that's a fact of life, alright
The good lord stands behind every step
We are blind to fate
That's life
That's life
Stay, oh, won't you please
Stay
Won't you
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Right here
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
I want you to stay right here, we can stay here
Stay
Together, together, yeah
Stay
Don't listen to what people say
Stay
Stay
Stay
Listen to me, stay, yeah
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
Stay
