"I Wish You Would Stay" lyrics

Used to tell me that I was your everything
Used to hold me, tell me I'd be your wife someday
It used to be me and you through everything
Now I'm nothing, but still through it all
I wish you'd come back to me

I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
So go away
I don't want you to play with my feelings anymore, more, more
Anymore, more more

Used to tell me that you liked my smile
Used to hurt me, but it'd be okay in a while
It used to be me and you forever and always
But now that you're gone, I can't even sleep

I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
Yes, I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
So go away
I don't want you to play with my feelings anymore, more, more
Anymore, more more

I feel used and abused
And some of my wounds left bruises
My cuts and scratches turned to scars that won't heal

I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
I wish you would stay
I wish you would stay
But I know it's better this way
So go away
I don't want you to play with my feelings anymore, more, more
Anymore, more more

Oh-woah, oh
Ooh
Stay
