Lyrics:

(Burt Bacharach, Bob Hilliard)



Don't go, please stay

Don't go, please stay



If I got on my knees and pleaded with you

Not to go, but to stay in my heart

Would you walk out the door

Like you did once before

But this time be different and please stay

Don't go, please stay

Don't go



If I call out your name like a prayer

Would you leave me alone with my tears

Knowing I, I need you so

Would you still turn and go

But this time be different in some way

Don't go, please stay

Don't go, please stay



You took me away from the rest of the world

When you taught me to love you like this

Now I hang by a thread in the canyon of doom

But I still can be saved by your kiss



If I call out your name like a prayer

Would you leave me alone with my tears

Knowing I, I need you so

Would you still turn and go

But this time be different and please stay

Don't go, please stay

Don't go, please stay

Don't go, please stay
