"Don't Go"

(original by The Drifters 1961)

Don't go (please stay)
Don't go (please stay)

If i got on my knees and i pleaded with you
not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk out the door like you did once before
or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay

Don't go (please stay)
Don't go

If i called out your name like a prayer in the night
would you leave me alone with my tears
Knowing i-i, i love you so-o, would you still turn and go
or would this time be different in some wa-a-ay

Don't go (please stay)
(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 got on my knees and i pleaded with you
not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk out the door like you did once before
or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay

(don't go)
(please stay)
(don't go)
(please stay)
(don't go)
(please sta-ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay)
