[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
People like you always want back
~#**************#~
The love they gave away
~#**************#~
And people like me wanna believe you
~#**************#~
When you say youve changed
~#**************#~
The more I think about it now
~#**************#~
The less I know
~#**************#~
All I know is that you drove us
~#**************#~
Off the road
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Stay) Hey, all you had to do was stay
~#**************#~
Had me in the palm of your hand, then
~#**************#~
Whyd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
~#**************#~
(Stay) Hey, now you say you want it back
~#**************#~
Now that its just too late, well, couldve been easy
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay)
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
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
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Here you are now, calling me up
~#**************#~
But I dont know what to say
~#**************#~
Ive been pickin 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
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Stay) Hey, all you had to do was stay
~#**************#~
Had me in the palm of your hand, then
~#**************#~
Whyd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
~#**************#~
(Stay) Hey, now you say you want it back
~#**************#~
Now that its just too late, well, couldve been easy
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay)
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay)
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay)
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay)
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Let me remind you
~#**************#~
This was what you wanted (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
~#**************#~
You ended it
~#**************#~
You were all I wanted (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
~#**************#~
But not like this
~#**************#~
Not like this, not like this
~#**************#~
Oh, all you had to do was
~#**************#~
[Chorus]

(Stay) Hey, now you say you want it back
~#**************#~
Now that its just too late, well, it couldve been easy (All you had to do was stay)
~#**************#~
All you had to do was (Stay)
