Stay

(Verse 1)
It's selfish, it ain't fair, but I depend on you
Just seeing your smile, can sometimes pull me through
Ask why, couldn't tell you, don't know what to say
Don't know what to do, but I need you to stay

(1st Hook)
I don't need you loving me just need to know you're well
I can't believe it's come to this and nobody can tell
You know I never meant to hurt you or wanted this to be
But if your love was ever real, you wouldn't walk out on me

(Chorus)
Don't need you to love me, don't need you to care
Just need to know, baby, that you're always there
Don't need you to be with me day by day
Just need you to know I need you to stay

Don't need you to try, don't need you to fight
Don't need you beside me through sleepless nights
Don't need you to see me or look my way
Just need you to know I need you to stay

(Verse 2)
You don't want me, or need me, why not walk away
Cause without you, I'm nothing, couldn't live another day
It's foolish, it's childish, one more reason to leave
One more chance to break me down and leave me on my begging knees

(2nd Hook)
We've both done wrong, we've both caused pain, we've both made our mistakes
When you quizzed love, and broke our trust, no questions, I forgave
Now I need you to regard me with that same courtesy
I'll take the blame for love in vain, just can't see you leave

(Chorus)
Don't need you to love me, don't need you to care
Just need to know, baby, that you're always there
Don't need you to be with me day by day
Just need you to know I need you to stay

Don't need you to try, don't need you to fight
Don't need you beside me through sleepless nights
Don't need you to see me or look my way
Just need you to know I need you to stay

(Bridge)
Oooh, why did it all have to go wrong
Oooh, why can't our love just stay strong
Oooh, why can't we keep holding on
Baby I don't know what you intend to do
But I ain't moving on, no, ain't letting go of you

(Refrain)
Don't need you to love me, don't need you to care
Just need to know, baby, that you're always there
Don't need you to be with me day by day
Just need you to know I need you to stay

Don't need you to try, don't need you to fight
Don't need you beside me through sleepless nights
Don't need you to see me or look my way
Just need you to know I need you to stay

Don't want you to cry, don't want you to ache
Just don't want you to decide our fate
We're in this together, lovers and best friends
One thing gone wrong can't deny how good it's been
I need you to try to look at things my way
If this love is worth fixing, I need you to stay
