You said it once, Said it twice, That it hurts but I do it again I don't change, I don't learn, cause I can't let it in Said it's gone, let it be, 'cause you don't need a friend Baby I do, I pull and you push and we cry Til we laughing again, I Promise you, you promise me backin' and why Does it all fall apart in just a matter of time So I'm thinking maybe You've made up your mind Cause you're distant (distant ) And I can't stand to fight no more So please don't make me hurt you like I do I don't really trust myself to leave, Even though I hear you sayin' baby no, no (no, no, no no no, no no) I can't take no more of this and I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door Askin' if you still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay) Won't you stay? Memories of the fun that we had in photographs on the wall Now I can't make you smile or hear you laugh anymore And I can't help but ask, what's the point of it all Tell me baby, Call it love, call it lame, call it joy, call it pain But I fell, call it girl what you may is but it's painful as hell To be here while you're there don't need nobody else So I'm thinking maybe You've made up your mind Cause you're distant (distant ) And I can't stand to fight no more So please don't make me hurt you like I do I don't really trust myself to leave, Even though you're tellin' me (no, no, no no no, no no) I can't take no more of this and I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door Askin' if you still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay) Won't you stay? If your so meant for me? And if I'm so meant for you? Why does this have to be so hard on both of us two? If your so meant for me? And if I'm so meant for you? Why does this have to be so hard on both of us two? Still you're sayin' (no, no, no no no, no no) I can't take no more of this and I'm knock, knock, knockin' on your door Asking if you still let me in Won't you stay (ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay) Won't you stay? Won't you stay? (ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay) Won't you stay?
