[Verse 1]
Long time since I've seen your smile
But when I close my eyes
I remember
You were no more than a child
But then so was I
Young and tender

[Pre-Chorus]
Time carries on;
I guess it always will
But deep inside my heart
Time stands still

[Chorus]
Stay for awhile
Well, it's good to see your smile
And I love your company
Stay for awhile
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be

[Verse 2]
Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts
Clear summer days
Warm and lazy;
Long walks, long talks, after dark;
We vowed we'd never forget
Now it's hazy
[Pre-Chorus]
Time takes its toll
And time alters our view
It would be nice to
Spend some time with you

[Chorus]
Oh, stay for awhile
Well, it's good to see your smile
And I love your company
(Oohhh) Stay for awhile
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be

[Bridge]
Stay....
(Please stay.)
Stay, stay, stay....
Won't you, won't you

[Chorus]
Stay for awhile
Well, it's good to see your smile
And I love your company
(Oohhh) Stay for awhile
And remember the days gone by;
Just the way it used to be
[Chorus]
Stay for awhile
Oh, it's good to see your smile
And I love your company
Won't you stay with me for awhile
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be

[Outro]
(The way it used to be. Be.......
The way it used to be, ooohhhh, aaaahhhhhh. Ooooooooooooooh
Now, now, now, now.... Hoohhhhhh....)
