Stay Here Instead

(album: Riverdale: Special Episode - Carrie The Musical - 2018)

Stay here instead
Just tell me what you'd like to do
We'll talk and we'll laugh
And I'll sing to you
And I promise you we won't fight
Don't leave tonight

Momma, I'm late

The boy doesn't care
Not at all

He'll be here at eight

He'll build you up only to watch you fall
Carrie!
You don't know these people
They're not your friends
Carrie!
They're only waiting to tear you in two

What if they like me?

Just like your father
They'll leave when they're through

They might like me
They'll like me

You're such a fool
Aren't you aware how people deceive?

They'll take you and break you
And then they will leave you
Carrie, Carrie

Carrie
You are the love I was betrayed for
My pride and my shame
My Carrie
We're one and the same

Momma, I love you
I'll always love you

Don't go
Don't go
Don't go
