Stay

As it always seems to go
she loved him from his head
down to his toes.
She felt she was something just to pass his time
but when they weren't together
she was always on his mind
Then she got the feeling
she wasn't wanted anymore.

He said:
Don't go, baby
Please stay cause lately
I know I haven't been doing what I should.
Give me a second chance and you'll see
I can be what you want me to be
Won't be able to take it if you go away.
So please just stay.

Time and pain had got the best of him
They weren't the kids in love
that they were then.
His bags were sitting by the stairs.
Then he saw her coming
little chocolate lips and curly hair.
He told her he had to go
But she grabbed onto his leg

Crying:
Don't go, daddy
Please stay cause lately
I know I haven't been doing what I should.
Give me a second chance and you'll see
I can be what you want me to be.
Won't be able to take it if you go away.
So please just stay.

After a four hour drive
The prodigal ran inside.
With the family gathered with teary eyes
He knelt at his momma's bedside

Begging:
Don't go yet, sweet lady
Please stay cause lately
I know I've been up to no good.
Give me one more chance, momma
I'll move back, take care of you and poppa
I promise, to change all my ways
You can't die yet,
I still need you.
Momma I love you,
please just stay.
