I do the same thing I told you that I never would
Told you I'd change even when I knew I never could
Know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay
I get drunk, wake up, I'm wasted still
Realize time that I wasted here
Feel like you can't feel the way I feel
Got me fucked up, wish you could be right here
So baby stay
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
Told you I'd change even when I knew I never could
Know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay
Step one, you say you need to talk, he walks
You say "Sit down, it's just a talk"
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
Told you I'd change even when I knew I never could
Know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay
