It seems that loving is a game that I can't win
|
No sooner are you here than gone again
|
Is there nothing I can say
|
To change your mind and stay
|
Alone with you is all I long to be
|
Will you stay awhile with me.
|
|
I've often gazed into my crystal ball
|
To find out if you think of me at all
|
But there's no reason why
|
You should even try
|
For there's nothing I can give as you can see
|
If you stay awhile with me.
|
|
Stay awhile with me
|
And I will show you I'm true
|
Stay awhile with me
|
That's all I'm asking you to do.
|
|
I see you in the street lamp's rusty gleam
|
It casts a magic spell as in a dream
|
The night is growing old
|
Come in from the cold
|
I'll lock the door and throw away the key
|
If you stay awhile with me.
