FOR A WHILE THERE
IT WAS ROUGH
BUT LATELY
I'VE BEEN DOIN' BETTER
THAN THE LAST FOUR
COLD DECEMBERS, I RECALL
AND I SEE MY FAMILY
EVERY MONTH
I FOUND A GIRL MY PARENTS LOVE
SHE'LL COME
AND STAY THE NIGHT AND I...
THINK I MIGHT HAVE IT ALL
AND I THANK GOD EVERY DAY
FOR THE GIRL HE SENT MY WAY
BUT I KNOW
THE THINGS HE GIVES ME
HE CAN TAKE AWAY
AND I HOLD YOU EVERY NIGHT
AND THAT'S A FEELING
I WANNA GET USED TO
BUT THERE'S NO MAN
AS TERRIFIED AS THE MAN
WHO STANDS TO LOSE YOU
OH, I HOPE I DON'T LOSE YOU
MMM... PLEASE STAY, I WANT YOU
I NEED YOU, OH GOD
DON'T TAKE THESE BEAUTIFUL
THINGS THAT I'VE GOT
PLEASE STAY, I WANT YOU
I NEED YOU, OH GOD
DON'T TAKE THESE BEAUTIFUL
THINGS THAT I'VE GOT
OH... OOH...
PLEASE DON'T TAKE
I FOUND MY MIND
I'M FEELIN' SANE
IT'S BEEN A WHILE
BUT I'M FINDING MY FAITH
IF EVERYTHING'S GOOD
AND IT'S GREAT
WHY DO I... SIT AND WAIT
'TIL IT'S GONE
OH, I'LL TELL YA
I KNOW I'VE GOT ENOUGH
I'VE GOT PEACE
AND I'VE GOT LOVE
BUT I'M UP AT NIGHT THINKIN'
I JUST MIGHT LOSE IT ALL...
PLEASE STAY, I WANT YOU
I NEED YOU, OH GOD
DON'T TAKE THESE BEAUTIFUL
THINGS THAT I'VE GOT
OH... OOH...
PLEASE STAY, I WANT YOU
I NEED YOU, OH GOD
I... NEED THESE BEAUTIFUL
THINGS THAT I'VE GOT
