As i search this heart of mine
for words to tell you
if you give me time i swear
i'll find a way
how i've come to feel about you
i couldn't think of life without you
these words could never say
Like a fool i let my pride mislead me
in this world i call myself a man
but without your love to guide me
who could ease the pain inside me
somethin' only you could understand

chorus
stay, please stay
oh stay, please stay
'cause i need you by my side
on this long and lonely ride
and there's so much i would give you
if you'd stay

so i search this heart of mine
for words to tell you
if you give me time i swear
i'll find a way
how i've come to feel about you
i couldn't think of life without you
what i'm feeling now
these words could never say

chorus
stay, please stay
oh stay, please stay
oh, i need you by my side
on this long and lonely ride
and there's so much i would give you
if you'd stay
there is so much i would give you
if you'd stay
i've got so much love to give you
if you'd stay

please stay
