Stay

Lyrics
Verse 1:
Catch me
Stop me
I know the thought has crossed your mind
So just do it
Time’s not waiting
Chase me to my gate and make me change my mind
It’s for real this time
This is your last chance to take so you decide
How this goes
If I go…
Don’t be your worst enemy again
Don’t let me slip away once again
Because this time I won’t be coming back
I’ve got a one-way ticket, nothing’s holding me back
Unless you’ve got something else to say?
Unless you can push your pride out of your way
And say the words we both know you’ve held inside
Or is this just goodbye?
Pre-Chorus:
If you’d just give me a reason
You know that I would stay
It’s now or never
Don’t let fear trap the words that you’re dying to say…
Chorus:
I need you to want me to stay
Tell me you need me to stay
Because I would run to you without a second thought
Turn around and leave this airport
With you, if you’d just say
You want me to stay.
Verse 2:
It’s always been me
Who takes the leap and lays my heart down for you
And I’ve shown you
That I will give you everything I am
All I need is honesty
All I ask for is that you return my feelings
Show me that you won’t let me leave…
(Stop me!)
Pre-Chorus:
If you’d just give me a reason
You know that I would stay
It’s now or never
Don’t let fear trap the words that you’re dying to say…
Chorus:
I need you to want me to stay
Tell me you need me to stay
Because I would run to you without a second thought
Turn around and leave this airport
With you, if you’d just say
You want me to stay.
Middle 8:
This is it, they’re calling for the final time
I can’t afford to miss this flight if nothing’s waiting for me on this side
So what’s it gonna be? Can you be brave enough to be honest with me?
And tell me that you don’t want me to leave
Because you love me.
Chorus:
I need you to want me to stay
Tell me you need me to stay
Because I would run to you without a second thought
Turn around and leave this airport
With you, if you’d just say
You want me to stay.
End:
I guess not… Goodbye then.
