[Verse 1]
'Twas the first of May in a grocery store (Oh)
That's when my heart began to beat
Met a pretty girl in tsehe cereal lane (Woah)
Who would have known she was right for me?
But now that I'm on the road again (All day)
She's home alone again crying
I don't need no negative energy
No, I don't

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be miserable (Hey)
But I need you in my life
(Ooh, I love to see you happy, girl)
I love to see you happy, girl
So stay with me and never say goodbye
Say you're gonna be home later (Lay with me)
Don't wanna come to a house that's empty
Ooh
I heard you talkin' 'bout leavin' me, but no
Don't you go

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna hear you say that ever again
I working hard for both of us
I love my friends, it's you that I depend
Call you up, I only wanna tell you nothing but sweet things
Girl, stop crying
I don't need to have you leaving me
No, I don't
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be miserable (Yeah)
But I need you in my life
(I wanna see you happy, girl)
I love to see you happy, girl
So stay with me (Stay) and never say goodbye
Say you're gonna be home later (Lay with me)
Don't wanna come to a house that's empty
Ooh
I heard you're talkin' 'bout leavin' me, but no
Don't you go

[Bridge]
Your friends may talk about me
(No, but they don't know me like you do)
They don't know
What I'd do for you
I'd risk my life to be with you
Girl, I love you with all of my heart (Ooh, yeah)
And I will never let you go (Oh), oh, no
I promise one thing's for sure (Girl)
With my heart (Listen)
And my soul (Baby)
Take everything (It don't matter)
That I own
I'd give it all for your love (Mm)
And I'd do anything for you (Anything)
I don't care (Don't care)
Anywhere, where would I go?
I don't know
I really don't know
But I don't
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be miserable
But I need you in my life (I need you in my life)
I love to see you happy, girl
So stay with me (Stay) and never say goodbye
Say you're gonna be home later (Lay with me)
Don't wanna come to a house that's empty
Ooh
I heard you're talkin' 'bout leavin' me, but no
Don't you go
I don't wanna be miserable
But I need you in my life (Oh, I need you, baby)
I love to see you happy, girl (Yeah)
So stay with me (Oh, don't ever) and never say goodbye
You're gonna be home later (Lay with me)
Don't wanna come to a house that's empty
Ooh
I heard you're talkin' 'bout leavin' me, but no
Don't you go

So stay with me and never say goodbye
(And I'd do anything for you, baby)
