Why Dont You Stay
[Verse 1]
You're gonna go like you come: so sweetly
But too quickly for me
I got a body of gold and a mind of steel
But my heart's a china plate that you will break

[Chorus]
Why don't you stay? Why don't you say what you mean?
How could you love me and still leave?
Why don't you stay? I've got a home to keep
So do you want the open road or do you want me?

[Verse 2]
It's seven o'clock and the ghosts come knockin'
It's a party, it's Saturday night
But you're only here to say goodbye
Imagine my surprise - I don't think I heard you right

[Chorus]
Why don't you stay? Why don't you say what you mean?
How could you love me and still leave?
Why don't you stay? I've got a home to keep
So do you want the open road or do you want me?
[Verse 3]
I'll just let it go, sweep it under the rug
You'll leave me the skeletons of our love
I'll just let it go, sweep it under the rug
It's only the skeletons, the sweet remains of our love

[Chorus]
Why don't you stay? Why don't you say what you mean?
How could you love me and still leave?
Why don't you stay? I've got a home to keep
So do you want the open road or do you want me?
Why don't you stay? You can't have everything
So do you want the open road or do you want me?
