All You Had To Do Was Stay Lyrics

People like you always want back the love they gave away
And people like me wanna believe you when you say you've changed

The more I think about it now
The less I know
All I know is that you drove us off the road
Stay

Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
Stay

Hey, now you say you want it back
Now it's just too late
Well, it could've been easy
All you had to do was stay

All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay

Here you are now
Calling me up
But I don't know what to say
I've been picking up the pieces of the mess you made
People like you always want back the love they pushed aside

But people like me are gone forever
When you say goodbye
Stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay

Had me in the palm of your hand
Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you say you want it back

Now it's just too late
Well, it could've been easy
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay

All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
Let me remind you this was what you wanted

You ended it
You were all I wanted
But not like this
Not like this
Not like this

Oh
All you had to do was stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
Stay

Hey, now you say you want it back
Now it's just too late

Well, could've been easy
All you had to do was stay
Hey, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Then, why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?
Stay
Hey, now you say you want it back
Now it's just too late
Well, could've been easy
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
