Elvis Costello - Please Stay Lyrics
If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you
Not to go but to stay in my arms
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before
This time be different
If I call out your name like a prayer
Would you leave me alone with my tears
Knowing I need you so
Would you still turn and go
This time be different in some way
Don't go please stay
You took me away from the rest of the world
When you taught me to love you like this
But I still can be saved by your kiss
I loved you before I even knew your name
I wanted to give you my heart
But when you came back after leaving me one time
Oh I knew, yes I knew that the heartaches would start
If I told you my life was a song
That was written for you, you alone
Would you hurt all my pride
Oh, till I cry this time be different
Please stay
Oh, this time be different in some way
Don't go please stay

Elvis Costello Please Stay Comments
No, not The Cryin' Shames, but the more I listen to this the more I like. It is quite good. Of course none compare to The Drifters
nearly the cryin shames.....but not quite. great effort though.
I know why (even I ) overlooked this. He's great here.
Brilliant cover. The Drifters will surely be proud of you, Mr. McManus.
Ponkpolo it's a crying shames track
Elizabeth Crawford Sorry but the original was by the Drifters.
One of the most underrated singers of all time brought life to this song. Rudy Lewis.
It may sound corny but this song brings a tear to my eye. Not kidding.
That snare drum always sends chills down my spine. Beautiful interpretation by the legendary Mr McManus
You forget sometimes how good he actually is don't you...
The best cover he's ever done imo. Thanks for putting this up. Brilliant!
