Lyrics If You Let Me Stay - Terence Trent D’Arby

Sweetheart
Listen
I know the last few pages
Haven't been good for the both of us
And I've caused you a lot of grief
But put those bags down
Okay?
Before you make a decision like that
Please just listen to me
'Cos I don't want to leave
I definitely don't want you to leave
Just hear me out:
Honey
Don't leave me now
With my head on my shoulders wrong
Have I done something wrong for you to leave?
I know I've been careless
Girl
And I must apologize
I'll try better next time
Baby
If you let me stay.
If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay - I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay - And I should have said it from my heart -
If you let me stay.
How can I compensate for my indiscretions
Dear
Tell me it's not too late
That I'd love to hear
'Cause if you walk out on me
You will see a grown man cry
I didn't miss my water
'Til my well ran dry.
But if you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said -.. .
Your pretentions aim for gullible fools
And now
Who needs you
Anyway?
I'll get mine where I taught the school
You will regret it some day!
If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said -.. .
'Cause I need you
I'm not a man without you
Baby.
If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said -.. .
If you Let me stay - I'll say what I should have said -.. .
