Please Stay

(альбом: 5 By 5 = Go! - 1968)

If I got on my knee, and I pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay here in my arms, yes
Would you walk out the door, little girl
Like you did, yes, like you did once before?

(This time) Yes, this time (This time)
(Be different) Will it be different? (This time)
(Please stay) I gotta know, I gotta know, I gotta know (Don't go)

If I call out your name like a prayer, prayer in the night
Would you leave me alone with nothing?
Knowing I, I need you so, oh-whoa-whoa
Would you still, partner, would you still turn, turn and go-ho whoa-oh?

(This time) It's going this time (This time)
(Be different) I gotta know it from the get go (This time)
(Please stay) I gotta know, I gotta know, I gotta know (Don't go)
(Stay)

'Cause I loved you before, yeah
I even knew your name
And I wanted to give you my heart
But now you've come back
And believed in me one time
And I know, it's long, how I know
That your heartaches would start, yeah, yes

If I called out your name like a song
Which was written, written for you, alone, yeah, yes
Would you still, still hurt my pride?
Darling, yeah, yeah, it's calling 'til I cried

Oh listen (Listen), yes, it's calling this time (This time)
(Be different) Will it be different? (This time)
(Please stay) I got to know, I gotta know, I gotta know (Don't go)
You know I'll always love you so, yeah
(Stay) Will it be different than before? (Don't go)
I gotta know, I gotta know, I gotta know
(Stay) Oh, don't go, yeah (Don't go)
Please stay
