If I got on my knees
And pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay in my arms
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before
This time you'll be different
Please stay, don't go

If I called out your name like a prayer
Would you leave me alone in my fear
Knowing I need ya so
Would you still turn and go
This time, you'll be different
Please stay, don't go
Please stay

I loved you before
I even knew your name
And I wanted to give you my heart
Well then you came back after me one time
Oh, I knew, oh how I knew
That these heartaches would stop

[Guitar solo]

Would you still hurt my pride
Baby hey, hurt till I cry
This time, you'll be different
Please stay, don't go
Please stay
You know I'll always love you darling
Please stay
