Sweetheart listen
I know the last few pages
Haven't been good for the both of us
And I've caused you a lot of grief
But put those bags down, o.k.?
Before you make a decision like that
Please just listen to me
'Cause I don't want you to leave
I definitely don't want you to leave
Just hear me out
Honey, don't leave me now
With my head on my shoulders wrong
Have I done something wrong for you to leave?
I know I've been careless, girl
And I must apologize
I'll try better next time, baby
If you let me stay
If you let me stay (I'll say what I should have said)
If you let me stay (I should have said that I love you)
If you let me stay (And I should have said it from my heart)
If you let me stay
How can I compensate
For my indiscretions, dear
Tell me it's not too late
That I'd love to hear
'Cause if you walk out on me
You will see a grown man cry
I didn't miss my water
'Til my well ran dry
But if you let me stay (I'll say what I should have said)
If you let me stay (I should have said that I love you)
If you let me stay (And I should have said it from my heart)
If you let me stay
Your pretentions aim for gullible fools
And now, who needs you anyway?
I'll get mine elsewhere
I taught the school
You will regret it some day
If you let me stay (I'll say what I should have said)
If you let me stay (I should have said that I love you)
If you let me stay (And I should have said it from my heart)
If you let me
'Cause I need you
I'm not a man without you, baby
If you let me stay (I'll say what I should have said)
If you let me stay (I should have said that I love you)
If you let me stay (And I should have said it from my heart)
If you let me stay, 'cause I got to need m'baby
I can't do much baby baby baby
If you let me stay (I'll say what I should have said)
If you let me stay (I should have said that I love you)
If you let me stay (And I should have said it from my heart)
If you let me
