Sananda Maitreya - Terence Trent D'Arby's Greatest Hits

If You Let Me Stay

Sweetheart, listen
I know the last few pages
Haven't been good for the both of us
And I've caused you a lot of grief
But put those bags down, okay?
Before you make a decision like that

Please, just listen to me
'Cause I don't want to leave
I definitely don't want you to leave
Just hear me out, ooh

Honey, don't leave me now
With my head on my shoulders wrong
Have I done something wrong for you to leave?
I know I've been careless, girl
And I must apologize
I'll try better next time, baby
If you let me stay

If you let me stay
I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay
I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay
And I should have said it from my heart
If you let me stay

How can I compensate for my indiscretions, dear
Tell me it's not too late, that I'd love to hear
'Cause if you walk out on me
You will see a grown man cry
I didn't miss my water 'til my well ran dry

But if you let me stay
I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay
I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay
And I should have said it from my heart
If you let me stay

Your pretensions aim for gullible fools
And now who needs you anyway?
I'll get mine where I taught the school
You will regret it someday!

If you let me stay
I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay
I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay
And I should have said it from my heart

If you let me
'Cause I need you
I'm not a man without you, baby

If you let me stay
I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay
I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay
And I should have said it from my heart
If you let me stay
Come and talk to me, baby
I can't do it by

If you let me stay
I'll say what I should have said
If you let me stay
I should have said that I love you
If you let me stay
And I should have said it from my heart
If you let me, ooh-ooh
