People like you always want back the love they gave away
And people like me wanna believe you when you say you've changed
The more I think about it now the less I know
All I know is that you drove us off the road
All you had to do was stay

All you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Why'd you had to go and lock me out when I let you in
Stay, hey, now you say you want it
Back now that it's just too late
Well it could've been easy
All you had to do was stay

Here you are now, calling me up, but I don't know what to say
I've been picking up the pieces of the mess you made
People like you always want back the love they pushed aside
But people like me are gone forever when you say goodbye

Stay, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Why'd you had to go and lock me out when I let you in
Stay, hey, now you say you want it
Back now that it's just too late
Well could've been easy
All you had to do was stay
Hey, it could have been easy
All you had to do was stay
It could have been easy
All you had to do was stay
Stay

All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
