Say You'll Stay

They tempt and they tease you
They take you right in
They turn and deceive you
Then caress you again
They stick you like needles
They prick you like pins
Words are the weapons
The battle begins
I know words aren’t worth much
And I know talk is cheap
And promises between us
Are sometimes hard to keep
Say You’ll Stay
Say You’ll Stay
You can wound with a whisper
You can soothe with a sigh
You can tell me you’re leaving
You can tell me you’ll try
I know words aren’t worth much
I know talk is cheap
And promises between us
Are sometimes hard to keep
Say You’ll Stay
Say You’ll Stay
I know broken spirit
I know wounded pride
But do words have the power
To steal you from my side
We’ve talked 'til we’re tongue tied
We’re broken in two
But there’s still one more thing
I need you to do
Say You’ll Stay
Say You’ll Stay
