Darling, please stay, don't go away

(If you leave me)

What a heartache, for heaven's sake

(Don't you need me?)

Don't leave me blue of wanting you

(How could I live?)

Don't be untrue, what could I do?



CHORUS:

(Don't you know you)

You gave me the world, little girl

When you gave me your love

So if you take your love

You take my world with you too



Hey look at me, now can't you see

(Tears in my eyes)

Hear what I say, stay here, I pray

(Never leave me)

Why must I plead, you know I need

(All your loving)

Don't put me down, keep me around



(chorus)



And I say, baby, pretty little baby

Don't leave me

Baby, pretty little baby



Darlin', you give me your joy, am I your toy

(Cracked and broken)

I always share your every care

(Wishin', hopin')

All through the years we have no fears

(Now I'm cryin')

You leave the tears fallin' for years



(chorus)



And I say, baby, pretty little baby

Don't leave me

Baby, pretty little baby

...and fade
