If You Stay

You could leave me now

Well, I'm not here to hear you walk out

Across that hardwood floor in this old house

There's something about the sound it makes

Makes a heart break

You could be gone by tonight

There's no such thing as a good goodbye

If you think I'd be lonely, you're only damn right

I know in my mind that you could

Be gone for good

Or, baby, you could stay

There's so many things I need to say

The things I should have told you every day

Starting with the way that I love you, and I'm not through

Girl, you are my only need

The reason that I even care to breathe

As much as I want you here with me

I can't promise there won't be a little rain

But if you stay

Today I'll start

Being the same one who won your heart

Be the me who could reach deep in the dark

And catch you a star

Heaven knows you're free to go

Or, baby, you could stay

There's so many things I need to say

The things I should have told you every day

Starting with the way that I love you, and I'm not through

Girl, you are my only need

The reason that I even care to breathe

As much as I want you here with me

I can't promise there won't be a little rain

But if you stay, I'm gonna make you glad you did

Girl, you are my only need

The reason that I even care to breathe

As much as I want you here with me

I can't promise there won't be a little rain

But if you stay

If you stay

If you stay
