Take me back right to the start
Before this ache, I feel apart
Closer than the air I breathe
Never thought I'd see you leave

Somedays, you call me in love
And I can tell it's real
Somedays, you take me
To places I could never feel
Oh, you're here now
But life's taking you far away
Oh, you're here now
One last chance to hear me say

Why won't you just stay
Why won't you just stay, with me
Why won't you just stay
Why won't you just stay, with me

Take me back when we were young
By my side under the sun
Used to be just you and me
Never thought I'd see you leave

Somedays, you call me in love
And I can tell it's real
Somedays, you take me
To places I could never feel
Oh, you're here now
But life's taking you far away
Oh, you're here now
One last chance to hear me say

Why won't you just stay
Why won't you just stay, with me
Why won't you just stay
Why won't you just stay, with me
