"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
When you say that 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

All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hands
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 have been easy
All you had to do was stay

Here you are now, callin' 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, all you had to do was stay
Had me in the palm of your hand
Why'd you have to go and lock me out while I let you in?
Stay, hey, you're gonna want it back
It's just too late
Well, it could have been easy
All you had to do was stay
Well, it could have been easy
All you had to do was stay
Could've been easy
All you had to do was stay
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
All you had to do was stay
All you had to do was stay
