All You Had to Do Was Stay Songtext / Lyric

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
