I been sittin' here staring at the clock on the wall
And I been layin' here praying praying she won't call
It's just another call from home and you'll get it and be gone and I'll be crying
And I'll be beggin' you, baby beg you not to leave
But I'll be left here waiting with my heart on my sleeve
Oh for the next time we'll be here
Seems like a million years and I think I'm dying
What do I have to do to make you see she can't love you like me
So why don't you stay?
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need?
When she calls you to go there is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay?
You keep telling me, baby there will come a time
When you will leave her arms and forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth and I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting
It's too much pain to have to bear to love a man you have to share
Why don't you stay?
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need?
When she calls you to go there is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay?
I can't take it any longer but my will is getting stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do
I can't waste another minute after all that I've put in it
I've given you my best. Why does she get the best of you?
So the next time that you find you wanna leave her bed for mine
Why don't you stay?
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely you can't give me what I need
When she begs you not to go there is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay?
Oh whoa whoa
