I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"

[Chorus]

Why'd you have to lead me on?

Why’d you have to twist the knife?

Walk away and leave me bleedin’, bleedin'?

Why’d you whisper in the dark?

Just to leave me in the night?

Now your silence has me screamin', screamin'

[Post-Chorus]

(Say) Say, "(Don't) don’t (Go) go"

I would stay forevеr if you (Say) say, "(Don't) don't (Go) go"

(Say, say, say, say)

[Verse 2]

Now I'm pacin' on shaky ground

Strike a match, then you blow it out
