Stay awhile, let me hold you
Stay awhile till I've told you, oh
Of the love that I feel tonight, oh yeah!

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
I 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

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

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
I hate to see you go
I 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
Treat me right, must you run now?
For the night’s just begun now, oh
Honey, please, won't you stay awhile with me?
So, honey, please, won't you stay awhile with me?
Oh yeah, honey, please, won't you stay awhile with me?
Oh yeah!
