[Intro]
La la la, la la la
La la la
Stay with me
La la la, la la la
La la la
Stay with me

[Verse 1]
Stay with me, my dear
Walk with me, hold me near
It's not as late as it seems, no, no
So why'd you take your love away from me?

[Chorus: John Legend & (Al Green)]
La la la, la la la (La la la)
La la la
Stay with me (By the sea)
La la la, la la la (Oh)
La la la
Stay with me

[Verse 2: John Legend]
In the morning light
Or the shades of white
You're the only who tries
So what's the meaning of saying goodbye?
[Chorus: John Legend]
La la la (Oh), la la la (Stay)
La la la
Stay with me (Come on and stay)
La la la, la la la
La la la
Stay with me

[Bridge: Al Green & John Legend]
Hold my hand, my dear
Treat me like your my own loving woman (Hey hey hey)
Am I the only one you see? (Ah)
So why'd you take your love away from me?

[Chorus: John Legend & Al Green]
La la la (Look at you) La la la (Oh oh, baby baby)
La la la
Stay with me (Take your love from me)
La la la (Ooh, come on, baby) La la la (By the sea)
La la la (Come on and stay)
Stay with me (Seem to wanna take it from, take it from me)
La la la (Come on, come on), la la la (Baby)
La la la
Stay with me
La la la, la la la
La la la
Stay with me
[Outro: John Legend]
Ooh, stay, baby
Ooh
Come on, come on, stay
