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
