Stay Awhile

[Verse 1] So who you gonna turn to when the light is fading? Who you gonna run to when the rain sets in? Who do you come to when the blues comes calling? Who you trying to fool coming around here again? [Pre-Chorus] Yes, I heard you found a new plaything Right now it seems you need a friend [Chorus] Why don't you stay a while Just 'til the night is through Tell me you're lonely; baby, I'm lonely, too So stay a while I'll stay a while [Verse 2] All I ever wanted was a shoulder to lean on And all you ever wanted was a dream that would last Promises made in the heat of the moment Ooh, I know I never told you that was too much to ask [Pre-Chorus] But it won't take much gentle persuasion To make you remember, make me forget [Chorus] Oh, why don't you stay a while Just 'til the night is through Tell me you're lonely; baby, I'm lonely, too So stay a while [Bridge] You may not be a knight in white satin Maybe the best was all in the past Turn the lights low, lay down beside me Just 'til the dawn, I don't want you to go Ooh, ooh Tell me you want me Baby, I need you, too Stay a while [Outro] Why don't you stay a while Just 'til the night is through Tell me you're lonely; baby, I'm lonely, too Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, too Why don't you stay a while Just 'til the night is through Tell me you love me, 'cause baby, I love you, too And I love you, love you, I love you, love you, too Why don't you stay a while, mhm Just 'til the night is through Tell me you love me, and baby, I, I want you too You know I want you, too Why don't you stay a while Stay a while, just stay a little while with me Just 'til the night is through Tell me you love me
