For Awhile

[Verse 1: Faith Evans]

Living my life without you

Something I don't wanna do

So please don't walk away

And leave me all alone

Baby, stay for just a while

[Chorus: Faith Evans]

Why can't you stay with me

For just a while?

'cause if you leave

You'll take a piece of me

Why can't you stay

With me for just a while? (Just a while)

Boy, you know you have the key to my heart

[Verse 2: Slim]

Ooh baby, girl, I don't want you to go

You are my heart and soul

The reason that I live

The one that I adore

And I can't stand the thought

Of being by myself

But I can't see myself

Loving no, nobody else

[Chorus: Faith Evans]

Why can't you stay with me

For just a while?

(Stay with me, baby)

'cause if you leave

You'll take a piece of me

(You would take a piece of me)

Why can't you stay

With me for just a while?

Boy, you know you have the key to my heart

[Bridge: Slim & Faith Evans]

Girl, why won't you just stay with me

There's nothing I won't do for you

You are my destiny

You mean the world to me

And whenever you need me, girl

I'll be right by your side

I'll always love you, baby

Why won't you stay with me, baby?

Stay with me

Stay with me, baby

A little while longer

You would take a piece of my heart, baby

You would take a piece of me

Oh, oh

And girl you know I love you, too

Just a while

Girl, you know you have the key to my heart

Stay with me

[Chorus: Faith Evans]

Why can't you stay with me

For just a while?

'cause if you leave

You'll take a piece of me

Why can't you stay

With me for just a while?

Boy, you know you have the key to my heart

Why can't you stay with me

For just a while?

'cause if you leave

You'll take a piece of me

Why can't you stay

With me for just a while?

Boy, you know you have the key to my heart
