If I Stay Too Long - The Creation

Walking up to your street

Rehearsing everything I’ll say

I know I’ll say it different,

Or at least another way.

So if I stay too long

It’s 'cause I need ya.

Hope that you won’t make me cry

Like you did the other night (do you remember?)

People stopped and stared at me As if I wasn’t right (don't worry).

If I stay too long

It’s 'cause I want ya (yes I do)

I’m nearly to your door now

Oh, my heart beats so inside

I hope that you will see me I ain’t gonna take it for a ride (no I won’t)

If I stay too long

It’s 'cause I love ya (you know I do)

Oh now!

If I stay too long

(You know) it’s 'cause I loves ya Now we’re sitting hand in hand,

So relax, I’m feeling fine

I gotta hear it from your lips,

Will I forget about the time?

(Oh, will you say) if I stay too long

Now, now, don’t be worried…

(And will you say) if I stay too long

Now don’t be worried about a thing…
