[Verse 1]
Wait
I heard you were leaving, won't you stay
'Cause I got a feeling you can change
Say you don't need anybody, no, anybody

[Pre-Chorus]
Guess you never thought that I'd be in it for the long run
And if you wanna go, you know I'll let you go on
Now there were some people telling me that you were no fun
'Cause they never seen your side the way that I've done

[Chorus]
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay, mmm
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay

[Verse 2]
Mmm, and baby your face
So charming and young, I took the bait
Now I'll prove you wrong, I'm wide awake
'Cause I know you need somebody, anybody

[Pre-Chorus]
Guess you never thought that I'd be in it for the long run
And if you wanna go, you know I'll let you go on
Now there were some people telling me that you were no fun
'Cause they never seen your side the way that I've done
[Chorus]
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay, mmm
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay, mmm

[Bridge]
And maybe one (Day)
The doubts in your mind will slowly (Fade)
And you and me will be in a better (Place)
'Cause I know we'll be together, yeah, we forever

[Pre-Chorus]
Guess you never thought that I'd be in it for the long run
And if you wanna go, you know I'll let you go on
Now there were some people telling me that you were no fun
'Cause they never seen your side the way that I've done

[Chorus]
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay, mmm
I want you to stay
Stay-ay, stay-ay-ay, mmm
