Oh Joy, Oh Joy
Oh joy, oh joy, don't leave just yet, linger on awhile and wash my days with a mist of morning dew..just enough to make me feel alive and full of you.
Oh joy, oh joy, i strech and purr like a kitten after her nap knowing you are nearby with a touch so soft and yet so familiar with my every aches and make them enhanced and slide on to a ride that won't stop until i reach that place of bliss where you never know if you will find your way back.
Oh joy, oh joy, stay awhile longer please..don't hasten to leave me yet,
The after glow may stay to put us both to sleep and a smile on our faces and warmth running through our bodies like a river down a hill, so smooth and ever changing.
Oh joy, oh joy, oh please remain..

Why Go?
Don't go
I didn't know you'd be here, and i wasn't meant to come.
I'd be sitting watching tv if there was anything decent on,
If i'd missed the taxi or found nothing good to wear.
But for some uncertain reason, some strange uncertain reason,
This is how it all it all began.
(why go?) why go, (when you could stay awhile)?
(why go?) why go, (when you could stay awhile)?
If i made some coffee, would you sit and talk some more?
I know words are usually pointless when you've used them all before.
The way your smile fills the room --
Stay awhile. kick off your shoes. don't go. please stay. --
It always happened this way.
(why go?) why go, (when you could stay awhile)?
(why go?) why go, (when you could stay awhile)?
The way your smile fills the room --
Stay awhile. what's there to lose? --
The way you laugh, when i say, don't go. please stay.
Why go? why go, when you could stay awhile?
Why go? why go, when you could stay awhile,
When you could stay with me tonight?
Tonight?

Lay, Lady, Lay
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colors you have in your mind
Ill show them to you and youll see them shine
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
And youre the best thing that hes ever seen
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When hes standing in front of you
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
I long to see you in the morning light
I long to reach for you in the night
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead

Stay For A While
Long time since Ive seen your smile,
But when I close my eyes,
I remember
You were no more than a child,
But then so was i,
Young and tender.
Time carries on;
I guess it always will,
But deep inside my heart
Time stands still.
Stay for awhile.
Well, its good to see your smile,
And I love your company.
Stay for awhile.
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be.
Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts,
Clear summer days,
Warm and lazy;
Long walks, long talks, after dark;
We vowed wed never forget.
Now its hazy.
Time takes its toll,
And time alters our view.
It would be nice to
Spend some time with you.
Oh, stay for awhile.
Well, its good to see your smile,
And I love your company.
(oohhh) stay for awhile.
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be.
Stay....
(please stay.)
Stay, stay, stay....
One, two, one, two.
Stay for awhile.
Well, its good to see your smile,
And I love your company.
(oohhh) stay for awhile.
And remember the days gone by;
Just the way it used to be.
Stay for awhile.
Oh, its good to see your smile,
And I love your company.
Wont you stay with me for awhile,
And remember the days gone by;
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be.
(the way it used to be. be.......
The way it used to be, ooohhhh, aaaahhhhhh. ooooooooooooooh.
Now, now, now, now.... hoohhhhhh....)

Don't Leave Me
Don't leave me
I have to wait for you to come back
I will miss you too much
When you leave me I be depression
Don't leave me
You are my angel
Please stay and tell me whatever I did wrong or say and I'm sorry
You make me not want to eat or sleep if you leave me
Don't leave me
What will I do without you
Everyday not seeing you anymore will make me sad and
Think it all my fault if you leave me
You are the only one for me
Don't leave me
You are my angel
Please stay and tell me whatever I did wrong or say and I'm sorry
You make me not want to eat or sleep if you leave me
Don't leave me and
I have to wait for you
I will move onto another guy and forget you
So baby please stay with me and give me another chance
Don't leave me
I will never smile again
I can't stand back up if
You not here by my side so please stay baby
Don't leave me

Cinderella Stay Awhile
[verse 1]
Cinderella, stay awhile
Youre the one
That Ive been lookin for
Cinderella, when you smile
All around me sunbeams
Start to fall
Midnight is so near
Please dont disappear
Now that you are here
Stay awhile
[verse 2]
Cinderella, I just know
That the magic slippers

Cinderella, do not go
Youre my princess

This is love for sure
Love thats sweet and pure
Love that will endure
Stay awhile

When you speak the angels all sing
This is the kind of magic you bring, oh

Cinderella, stay awhile
This is like a fairytale with you
Cinderella, when you smile
All my fairytales are coming true
Well my only fear
Is midnight is so near
Please dont disappear

Leave Me Alone
Say you dominate you can never wait
To listen to the things that I have got to say
Youre amorous, polygamous
And thats okay as long as I dont start to play
Say listen good
You know you should
Paradise is built inside an hour glass
Im feminine but that dont mean
That I would want to travel second class
Leave me alone cause Ive got my rhythm (yeah)
Leave me alone cause Ive got my life
Leave me alone cause Ive got my rhythm
Just leave me alone
Just leave me alone
Leave me alone if you want to stay mine
Leave me alone
Now I am you and you are me
The signs are right and it will fit eventually
Its hard to take youd better break
A habit that has ruled for an eternity
Its your concern youd better learn
Ill never belong to you or any other man
Take what I give and go and live
With someone else if you dont understand
Leave me alone cause Ive got my rhythm
Leave me alone cause Ive got my life
Leave me alone cause Ive got my rhythm
Just leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone if you want to stay mine
Leave me alone
Leave me alone if you want to stay mine for awhile
Leave me alone if you want to stay mine for awhile
Just leave me alone
You think youre hot stuff
You think youre so cool

I Will Let You Go
Here we stand
Each of us afraid to make a sound
Hoping love will turn this thing around
And I know what I must do
Chorus:
So I will let you go
Yes fly away my love
Linger for awhile
Live for a strangers smile
And hope it is enough
Youll return
But I must let you go
Sometimes
Two steps back is just what lovers need
Not knowing that its love
That makes us free
So Ill be brave and retreat
Chorus:
cause I will let you go
Fly away my love
Linger for awhile
Live for a strangers smile
And hope that is enough
Youll return
But I must let you go
No its not, no its not fair darling
Missing precious hours, precious days
Making you figure out
What I know to be true
Love remains
Fly away my love
Linger for awhile
Live for a strangers smile
And hope that is enough
Youll return
I know
But I must let you go

Aint It Just Like You
Girl your bags are packed
And you aint coming back is written on them
Take these memories with you
Theyre just sad, and theyre blue and I dont want them
Oh youre not so sure that youre in love anymore
And I aint gonna beg you to stay
Aint it just like you to leave
Aint it just like me to let you walk away
I hold a tender place in my heart for you and you know it
Ive never said it out loud
Guess I was too proud to ever show it
We always thought some night that we might get it right
But that aint going to happen today
Aint it just like you to leave
Aint it just like me to let you walk away
Honey you must think my heart is a revolving door
The way you come and go as you please
I dont know if I should give up or try
Or get down on my knees
Aint it just like me to pray
Aint it just like you to turn and walk away
Here you are at my door
Youre wanting in, youre wanting more and its open
You win me over with that grin
So I let you on in, and Im hopin
That this time you might stay forever
But baby that just aint your style
Aint it just like you to smile
Aint it just like me to let you stay awhile
Oh you must think my heart is a revolving door
The way you come and go as you please
And I dont know if I should give up or try
Or get down on my knees
Aint it just like me to pray
Aint it just like you to make me feel this way
Aint it just like you to smile
Aint it just like me to let you stay awhile

Be With You Awhile
I wish I could tell you something you didn't know
I wish I could give you something you didn't owe
I wish I could tell you a joke to make you smile
And I could be with you awhile
Just wanna be that someone you weren't looking for
Some nameless fascination that showed up at your door
And when you're sad and blue my jokes still make you smile
And I could be with you awhile
I just want to take you somewhere you haven't been
Find an old time movie where we don't know the end
Lost in the radio, drive another mile
So I could be with you awhile
Just wanna be that someone you weren't looking for
Some nameless fascination that showed up at your door
And when you're sad and blue my jokes still make you smile
And I could be with you awhile
Tired of serious conversation
Tangled up in situations
I feel so free 'cause you want nothing from me
Just wanna be that someone you weren't looking for
Some hopeless vagabond asleep there on your floor
And when you're old and gray my jokes still make you smile
And I could be with you awhile
Just wanna be that someone you weren't looking for
Some nameless fascination that showed up at your door
And when you're old and gray my jokes still make you smile
And I could be with you awhile
I just want to be with you awhile
I just want to be with you awhile
I just want to be with you...

My All/Stay Awhile
(I told you, if Jermaine likes it... then I like it)
(Don't leave
Don't, don't leave)
(Repeat x8)
I am thinking of you in my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you
Then my heart just won't let me be right
'Cause I've drowned in you and I won't pull through without you by my side
I'd give my all
(My all)
To have
(To have)
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel
(To feel)
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight
So put your loving arms around me, boy
And hold me like I was a cuddly toy
Let me feel that warmth of your embrace
Don't let go
'Cause there could be no sadder sight to see
Than if we were to miss this opportunity
So send me up a signal and I'll catch the line
If there's no time, you know it's up to you
So why don't you
Stay a little while, child
(Stay)
Stay a little while... child
(Stay)
Stay a little while, child
(Stay)
Stay a little while... child
(Ooh)
(Now let's take it uptown, get down)
Well since you put it that way, honey I'm gon' stay
And only your love can make Peter parlay
Let the limo leave, we'll cancel the flight
And not only will I stay, girl I'm spending the night
And if it's right, I'm spending my life all out
And if it seems like I'm rushing, then I'll sleep on the couch
MC, it's your call
I'm ready to ball and if you need me, I'm ready to brawl
And that's forever by law
Together we ball, we takin' it all
I make you feel the way a woman never felt before
I seen women on many levels, never hot and young
With a body like that, that face no flaw
You got to be heaven-sent, sayin' you's a dime
You off the meter and a seven then
You like the way I rhyme
Yes shine, I'm a veteran
Picture me and honey spending money like whatever then
We both got it
Why don't you
Stay a little while, child
(Stay)
Stay a little while... child
(Mmm, why don't you)
Stay a little while, child
(Stay)
Stay a little while... child
(Ooh)
There's no need to act surprised
'Cause there's no room to serve this right
So let's push love to the limit and life to the edge
I've only one request of you
Stay awhile
I'd give my all to have just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight

She will be loved
Beauty queen of only seventeen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else
I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved
Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore
It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who
you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every
time she falls
Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved

Cold River
(pal waaktaar/lauren savoy)
I took a ride in an automobile
Pushed my hands out against the wheel
Asked a girl if she needed a ride
She said, sure, babe, but I wanna drive
Hey now, wait awhile
Were going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she took my pride
Had to stop on account of the storm
Seemed like years since Id been warm
We drove all night till the tires blew
Got in the back and did what you do
Hey now, wait awhile
Were going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she took my pride
On a sunny day
On a sunny day

Washing Of The Water
River, river carry me on
Living river carry me on
River, river carry me on
To the place where I come from
So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside
River, show me how to float
I feel like Im sinking down
Thought that I could get along
But here in this water
My feet wont touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around
Going away, away towards the sea
River deep, can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on though the heartland
til the sun has left the sky
River, river carry me high
til the washing of the water make it all alright
Let your waters reach me like she reached me tonight
Letting go, its so hard
The way its hurting now
To get this love untied
So tough to stay with thing
cause if I follow through
I face what I denied
I get those hooks out of me
And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide
River, oh river, river running deep
Bring me something that will let me get to sleep
In the washing of the water will you take it all away
Bring me something to take this pain away

What Those Who Leave First Really Leave Us
let us start with an empty bed
they leave us
warmth there
one that has
heat in our palms
so hard to forgo
to forget
and they leave us
black and white
pictures of their
faces, not ghostly
but lovely faces
of those we still
love
they never want
to leave us
in the first place
they really want
to stay, but they
were taken just
the same
and that makes
us sadder really
then the cabinet
where their clothes
are: silent and you
smell them and closer
closer you touch them
and feel them in
your heart: pain seeps
a little closer
and then you walk
through the door that
you just closed and the
windows that still refused
to admit the fresh air
in the morning: you are
still mourning in black
and not talking much
and on and on
to the backyard the flowers
wilting and to the comfort room
where their sweats still
linger: figments of mildew
sketches of their faces
still there
some finger
prints on the mirror when
they were still brushing
their teeth
after all these
we ask again
what are these people really leaving us?
come to think of it
they are still here and they haven't really
left us yet
the love is still in our hearts
come to think about all these again
is there really leaving?
i guess, there is none because for a person
who really loves
no one leaves
everyone stays together like eternity

The Gardener XL: An Unbelieving Smile
An unbelieving smile flits on your
eyes when I come to you to take my
leave.
I have done it so often that you
think I will soon return.
To tell you the truth I have the
same doubt in my mind.
For the spring days come again
time after time; the full moon takes
leave and comes on another visit,
the flowers come again and blush
upon their branches year after year,
and it is likely that I take my leave
only to come to you again.
But keep the illusion awhile; do
not send it away with ungentle
haste.
When I say I leave you for all
time, accept it as true, and let a
mist of tears for one moment deepen
the dark rim of your eyes.
Then smile as archly as you like
when I come again.
