Hey now, hey now
Before I let you go away
Hey now, slow down
There's a few things I must say

I know, you know
There is gonna be a day
When I hear you say
You know I just can't stay

Though the birds are singing outside
My heart is still breaking deep inside
You and I are saying goodbye
But you just gotta stay

Hey now, hey now
We said it was you and me
Oh, but right now, somehow
I can't let you leave

Though the birds are singing outside
My heart is still breaking deep inside
You and I are saying goodbye

You don't have to go away
I'll be begging you to stay

Though the birds are singing outside
My heart is still breaking deep inside
You and I are saying goodbye

Though the birds are singing outside
My heart is still breaking deep inside
You and I are saying goodbye
But you just gotta stay

Won't you stay, stay?

Hey now, slow down
I wish that you can stay
