I want to be here with you
But there's still a few things left that I need to do
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
And I don't expect for you to get
What I mean when I say that I do this all for you
Then she said
Why Can't You Stay, I'm always waiting
For you to say I'm not leaving baby
Another night I spend alone
Could be the last, I'm holding on so
Why Can't You Stay
Tell me
This four letter word that comes to mind
Might not be the one that you are so desperate to find
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
But I promise you when this is done
You will be the one left standing underneath my arms
Then she said
Why Can't You Stay, I'm always waiting
For you to say I'm not leaving baby
Another night I spend alone
Could be the last, I'm holding on so
Why Can't You Stay
Tell me
I know that you're strong
I'm back then I'm gone
Your world feels like a homesick lovesong
But I know we can make it through
Why can't I stay, you're always waiting
For me to say I'm right here baby
Another night I spend alone
Could be the last, I'm holding on so
Why Can't You Stay
Why Can't You Stay, you're always waiting
For me to say, I'm not leaving baby
Another night I spend alone
Could be the last, I'm holding on so
Why Can't You Stay
Tell me
Why Can't You Stay
Why Can't You Stay
