Baby if you've got to go away I don't think I can take the pain Won't you stay another day Oh don't leave me alone like this Don't say it's the final kiss Won't you stay another day Don't you know We've come too far now Just to go And try to throw it all away Thought I heard you say You love me That your love was gonna be here to stay I've only just begun To know you All I can say is Won't you stay just one more day Baby if you've got to go away I don't think I can take the pain Won't you stay another day Oh don't leave me alone like this Don't say it's the final kiss Won't you stay another day I touch your face while you are sleeping And hold your hand Don't understand what's going on Good times we had return To haunt me Though it's for you All that I do seem to be wrong Baby if you've got to go away I don't think I can take the pain Won't you stay another day Oh don't leave me alone like this Won't you stay another day
