Intro

(Verse 1)

Tell me the truth

How long has it been,

Since we last spoke of him?

Does he treat you right?

Did I treat you wrong?

Ever since you left I tried to stay strong

I learned from my mistakes

Why couldn't you through yours?

I tried to pick us up when we hit the floor

(Chorus)

Dont be a fool

Can't you see?

You're the one I want

You're everything I know

Don't be too cruel

I want to be

Everything you hold, inside

Everything's alright

If you don't leave me now don't leave me now

I'll hold you by my side

Just stay my dear, sta-a-ay with me

Oh oh

(Verse 2)

I'll give you my word

By the time I'm done

I will be the one

Can't you see?

I'm tired of this

Everything I tried to fix, you threw in my face

I'll soon learn

That when you went to him

I'll find a way to rise again

(Chorus)

Don't be a fool

Can't you see?

You're the one I want

You're everything I know

Don't be too cruel

I want to be

Everything you hold, inside

Everything's alright

If you don't leave me now don't leave me now

I'll hold you by my side

Just stay my dear, sta-a-ay with-

I'll hold you by my side

Just stay my dear, sta-a-ay with me
