Please Don't Stay (Once You Go Away) Lyrics

Stay baby, please stay
Don't go away, baby
Please stay, please stay
(Stay) please stay baby
(Don't go away) don't go away
Don't go away

I'm askin' you darlin' please stay (please stay, baby)
Please, don't go awa,y baby
Please stay baby, please (stay)
Don't go away, no
I couldn't stand it darlin'

I won't be able to sleep peacefully
In bed without you beside me darlin', darlin' anymore
No sugar, no, I won't be warm and secure
Oh, baby, baby, baby, like I was before
Oh, baby

I'll just lie tossin' and turnin'
(Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin') baby, baby, baby
All night long, ooh-ooh
Scared that if I closed my eyes (ooh-ooh)
When I got ready to wake up (ooh-ooh)
I might find you gone

Stay, baby, please stay
Don't go away, baby (don't go away)
Please stay (please stay)
'Cause I could never find nobody (stay, stay, stay)
Make me feel this way (don't go away)
No, sugar (please stay)

For I never felt this way before
No, no sugar you did it
Oh, I never felt so good, honey, before
Oh, top of my head, tip of my toes
Oh I, never felt so good, oh before
No, sugar 'cause you dig it, you got it
Oh, I never felt so good before
Oh, I love you, I just love you

Oh, now, I never felt so good before
Oh, I love ya
Oh, I never felt so good before
(I have never come)
(Come this way before)
(Oh, baby, oh, oh)

Marvin doesn’t just want anyone; he wants THAT somebody who makes him feel as good as the top of his head to the tip of his toes. Talk about head-to-toe love! So, hear the plea of a love-struck legend: "Please stay," because even the smoothest crooners need their serenades answered. 💔 #LoveDesperation #SoulfulPleas
