Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ladies and gents, clients and clientele
I give you the one Estelle
[Verse 2]
I didn't know that you'd be here
And I wasn't meant to come
I'd be chilling in front of the TV
Waiting for something good to come on
[Verse 3]
If I made you some food would you sit and talk to me?
I know my words are usually poor words
But you got me feelin' so crazy
[Verse 4]
The way you smile fills the room
Stay a while, kick off your shoes
Don't go, please stay
This always happens this way
[Verse 5]
Why go when you can stay a while?
When you can stay with me
Tonight
[Verse 6]
Why go? Why would you go when you can stay a while?
When you can stay with me
Tonight
[Verse 7]
Why go on with this sideshow when you done, ho?
This could never breathe and grow
So let me leave with the keys and show you the only happiness
That these circumstances allow
[Verse 8]
The way you smile fills the room
You got me feeling like a fool
'Cause you lie when I say
Don't go, please stay
[Verse 9]
Why go when you can stay a while?
When you can stay with me
Tonight
[Verse 10]
Why go when you can stay a while?
When you can stay with me
Tonight
[Verse 11]
Why go? Why would you go when you can stay a while?
When you can stay with me (Why would you go?)
Tonight
