You're from a small town where life's just a breeze to go (Life's just a breeze to go) With no makeup on and socks on your toes (You look better than before) A tear rolled down your smile, and your bags at your door You get in my car and said, "Are you ready to go?" So babe, if you're down I can show you what a man's all about I don't care bout' the future I just know I want you all for myself Why don't you stay, baby Why don't you stay, awhile Forget whatever they said bout' you and me I need me to hold your body close forever Why don't you stay It's been two years now and half our time's just gone (Our time's just gone) Most nights in bed I'm waiting for your call I just wanna hear your voice It's what it is, a thousand miles from me Oh yeah, oh yeah Come back from the east Let nothing come between us baby, us babe Why don't you stay, baby Why don't you stay, awhile Forget whatever they said bout' you and me I need me to hold your body close forever So babe, if you're down I can show you what a man's all about I don't care bout' the future I just know I want you all for myself Why don't you stay, baby Why don't you hold my hands and tell me Let's run away live life just you and me We'll figure out how to cope with reality So why don't you stay Won't you stay, won't you stay, won't you stay (Oh no, yeah) Stay, won't you stay, won't you stay, won't you stay (Oh no, yeah)
