People like you always want back
The love they gave away
And people like me wanna believe you
When you say you’ve changed
The more I think about it now
The less I know
All I know is that you drove us
Off the road
Stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then why’d you have to go
And lock me out
When I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you see you want it back
Now that it’s just too late
Well, it could’ve been easy
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
Here you are now, calling me up
But I don’t know what to say
I’ve been picking up the pieces
Of the mess you made
People like you always want back
The love they pushed aside
People like me are gone forever
When you say goodbye
Stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then why’d you have to go
And lock me out
When I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you see you want it back
Now that it’s just too late
Well, it could’ve been easy
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
(Stay, stay, stay)
Let me remind you
This was what you wanted
(Oh, oh, oh)
And you ended it
You were all I wanted
(Oh, oh, oh)
But not like this
Not like this, not like this
Oh, all you had to do was
Stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then why’d you have to go
And lock me out
When I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you see you want it
Back, now that it’s just too late
Well, it could’ve been easy
All you had to do was stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then why’d you have to go
And lock me out
When I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you see you want it back
Now that it’s just too late
Well
(All you had to do was stay)
It could’ve been easy
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay (Oh)
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay (Oh)
All you had to do was stay
