Don't go (Please stay)
Don't go (Please stay)

If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk   out the door   like you did once before?
Or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay?

Don't go (Please stay)
Don't go

If I called out your name like a prayer in the night
Would you leave me alone with my tears?
Knowing I-I, I love you so-o, would you still turn and go?
Or would this time be different in some wa-a-ay?

Don't go (Please stay)
(Please stay)

        You took me away from the rest of the world
        When you taught me to love you like this
        Now I hang by a thread in the canyon of doom
        But I still  can be saved.. by your kiss

If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk   out the door   like you did once before?
Or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay?

(Don't go)
(Please stay)
(Don't go)
(Please stay)
(Don't go)
(Please sta-ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay)
