ELVIS COSTELLO - Please Stay lyrics

rate me

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 in some way

Don't go please stay

You took me away from the rest of the world

When you taught me to love you like this

Now I hang my head when I think how you lied

But I still can be saved by your kiss

I loved you before I even knew your name

I wanted to give you my heart

But when you came back after leaving me one time

Oh I knew, yes I knew that the heartaches would start

If I told you my life was a song

That was written for you, you alone

Would you hurt all my pride

Oh, till I cry this time be different

Please stay

Oh, this time be different in some way

Don't go please stay
