Stay Awhile

So who you gonna turn to when the light is fading?
Who you gonna run to when the rain sets in?
Who do you come to when the blues comes calling?
Who are you trying to fool, coming around here again?
Yes, I heard you found a new plaything
Right now, it seems that you need a friend

Why don't you stay a while
Just 'til the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I'm lonely too
So stay a while, I'll stay a while

All I ever wanted was a shoulder to lean on
And all you ever wanted was a dream that would last
Promises made in the heat of the moment
I know I never told you that was too much to ask
But it won't take much gentle persuasion
To make you remember, make me forget, oh

Why don't you stay a while
Just 'til the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I'm lonely too
So stay a while

You may not be a knight in white satin
Maybe the best was all in the past
Turn the lights low, lay down beside me
Just 'til the dawn, I don't want you to go

Tell me you want me
Baby, I need you too
Stay a while

Why don't you stay a while
Just 'til the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I'm lonely too
Lonely, lonely, lonely too
Why don't you stay a while
Just 'til the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I'm lonely too
And I love you, I love you, I love you, love you too
Why don't you stay a while
Just 'til the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I want you to
You know I want you to
Why don't you stay a while
Stay a while, just stay a little while
