How can this be
How can this be
Though all these years I have been true to thee
Though all these years I have been true to thee
You had the nerve to say you're done with me
You had the nerve to say you're done with me
And that I should leave, girl, you're killing me
And that I should leave, girl, you're killing me
Take another day
Take another day
Before you go and throw it all away
Before you go and throw it all away
And if you do I know we'll find a way
And if you do I know we'll find a way
Just believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay
Just believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
Girl, I know you need me by your side
Girl, I know you need me by your side
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
Just let me tell you why
Just let me tell you why
You're all I ever needed
You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for
And everything worth fighting for
Before you go and throw it all away
Before you go and throw it all away
Girl, I just know that we can find a way
Girl, I just know that we can find a way
Please believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay
Please believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
Girl, I know you need me by your side
Girl, I know you need me by your side
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
Just let me tell you why
Just let me tell you why
You're all I ever needed
You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for
And everything worth fighting for
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
Girl, I know you need me by your side
Girl, I know you need me by your side
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why
Don't let me leave here, girl
Don't let me leave here, girl
Just let me tell you why
Just let me tell you why
You're all I ever needed
You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for
And everything worth fighting for
You're all I ever needed
You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for
And everything worth fighting for
