All You Had To Do Was Stay lyrics

People like you always want back

The love they gave away

And people like me wanna believe you

When you say that 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

[Chorus:]

All you had to do was stay

All you had to do was stay

Had me in the palm of your hands

Why'd you have to go and lock me out while I let you in?

Stay, hey

Now you say you want it back

Now it's just too late

Well, it could have 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

People like me are gone forever

When you say goodbye

[Chorus:]

Stay, all you had to do was stay

Had me in the palm of your hands

Why'd you have to go and lock me out while I let you in?

Stay, hey

Now you say you want it back

It's just too late

Well, it could have been easy

All you had to do was stay

Well, it could have been easy

All you had to do was stay

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

All you had to do was stay
