STAY (Original) Lyrics

[Intro: Justin Bieber]
Woah-oh, woah-oh

[Chorus: The Kid LAROI]
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
I told you I'd change, even when I knew I never could
I know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay, hey (Oh)

[Verse 1: The Kid LAROI]
I get drunk, wake up, I'm wasted still
I realize the time that I wasted here
I feel like you can't feel the way I feel
Oh, I'll be fucked up if you can't be right here

[Pre-Chorus: The Kid LAROI]
Oh, ooh-woah (Oh, ooh-woah, ooh-woah)
Oh, ooh-woah (Oh, ooh-woah, ooh-woah)
Oh, ooh-woah (Oh, ooh-woah, ooh-woah)
Oh, I'll be fucked up if you can't be right here

[Chorus: The Kid LAROI]
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
I told you I'd change, evеn when I knew I nevеr could
I know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay, hey
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
I told you I'd change, even when I knew I never could
I know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay, hey
[Verse 2: Justin Bieber]
When I'm away from you, I miss your touch (Ooh)
You're the reason I believe in love (Ooh)
It's been difficult for me to trust (Ooh)
And I'm afraid that I'ma fuck it up (Ooh)
Ain't no way that I can leave you stranded
'Cause you ain't ever left me empty-handed
And you know that I know that I can't live without you
So, baby, stay

[Pre-Chorus: The Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber]
Oh, ooh-woah
Oh, ooh-woah
Oh, ooh-woah
I'll be fucked up if you can't be right here

[Chorus: The Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber]
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
I told you I'd change, even when I knew I never could
I know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay, hey
I do the same thing I told you that I never would
I told you I'd change, even when I knew I never could
I know that I can't find nobody else as good as you
I need you to stay, need you to stay, hey
