[Verse 1]
Stay awhile, let me hold you
Stay awhile, 'til I've told you, oh, oh
Of the love that I feel tonight, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Stay awhile, what's your hurry?
Stay awhile, 'cause I worry, oh
Any time that you're out of sight

[Chorus]
I hate to see you go
Tell you what I'll do
I'll be good to you
I'll make you glad that you are mine
So come on, baby

[Verse 3]
Treat me right, must you run now?
For the night's just begun now, oh
Honey, please, won't you stay awhile with me?
Oh, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, I hate to see you go
Tell you what I'll do
I'll be good to you
I'll make you glad that you are mine
So come on, baby
[Outro]
Treat me right, must you run now?
For the night's just begun now, oh
Honey, please, won't you stay awhile with me?
Oh, yeah, yeah
Stay awhile with me
