You Can't Stay lyrics

I wasn’t built for the back burner

Don’t try to save me for a rainy day

You come in like a thunderstorm

You blow out like a hurricane (you’re like a hurricane)

Why do you say goodbye, then stay a little longer

I can't even close the door

Why do you make me cry, then take away your shoulder

I don't wanna live alone anymore.

I did all I could to treat you good

I never even took a holiday

But now I’m saying all the things I should

It’s time to shoot it straight (it’s time to shoot it straight)…

Why do you say goodbye, then stay a little longer

I can't even close the door

Why do you make me cry, then take away your shoulder

I don't wanna live alone anymore.

The truth is there's someone waiting

And I don't want to turn him away

So you can't stay.

(solo)

Why do you say goodbye, then stay a little longer

I can't even close the door

Why do you make me cry, then take away your shoulder

I don't wanna live alone anymore.

The truth is there's someone waiting

And I don't want to turn him away

So you can't stay.
