Can't turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Don't try to turn me off
When you think you found
Somebody new
Oh no no, oh no no, no
Don't try, don't try, don't try
To put me down
Just because she came around
And I say that you can't
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
You know in your heart
I'm the best for you
So don't try, don't try, don't try
To turn me away
Don't try to put me down
Just because she came around
And you can't
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
You know in your heart
I'm the best for you
So don't try, don't try, don't try
To put me down
Don't think to do
You can't put me down, no no
Just because she came around
And you can't
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
Can't turn me away
Turn me away
You know in your heart
I always want to stay
