[Intro]
Why do I stay, why do I stay in love?
(Why do I stay, why do I stay in love?)
Oh baby
Baby, I stay in love with you

[Verse 1]
Dying inside 'cause I can't stand it
Make up break up, can't take this madness
We don't even really know why all I know is baby, I
Try and try so hard to keep our love alive
If you don't know me at this point
Then I highly doubt you ever will
I really need you to give me that unconditional love I used to feel
It's a mistake if we just erase it (Hey, hey)
From our hearts and minds I know

[Chorus]
We said let go but I kept on hangin' on
Inside I know it's over, you're really gone
It's killing me cause there ain't nothing that I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself that you'll come back around
And I try to front like “Oh well”
Each time you let me down (Front like "Oh well")
See I can't get over you now, no matter what I do
Baby baby, I stay in love with you
[Post-Chorus]
(Why do I stay, why do I stay in love?)
Baby, I stay in love with you

[Verse 2]
It cuts so deep, it hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me I ain't the same no more
We still need each other when we stumble and fall how
We gon' act like what we had ain't nothing at all now
Hey, what I wanna do is ride shotgun next to you
With the top down like we used to
Hit the block proud in the SU
We both know our heart is breakin'
Can we learn from our mistakes?
I can't last one moment alone, although I know

[Chorus]
We said let go but I kept on hangin' on
Inside I know it's over, you're really gone
It's killing me 'cause there ain't nothing that I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself that you'll come back around
And I try to front like “Oh well”
Each time you let me down (front like "Oh well")
See, I can't get over you now, no matter what I do
Baby, baby, I stay in love with you
We said let go but I kept on hangin' on
Inside I know it's over, you're really gone
It's killing me 'cause there ain't nothing that I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself that you'll come back around
And I try and front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down (Front like "Oh well")
See, I can't get over you now, no matter what I do
But baby, baby, baby, I stay in love with you
[Chorus]
I stay in love
Oh, love
Oh
I stay
Love
I stay in love
