                        BEFORE I STAY              

Yeah, I'd love another dance
That's why I have to turn you down
A guilty pleasure meeting you
I'd stay here with you, but I can't

     I ain't gettin' no stronger
     I can't hang around much longer
     It ain't easy to say no
     But someone's there for me at home
     I gotta go
     I gotta go
     I gotta go before I stay

When you whisper in my ear
My heart beats faster than it should
You're still holding me too close
So what am I still doing here?

    I ain't gettin' no stronger
     I can't hang around much longer
     It ain't easy to say no . . .
     But someone's there for me at home
     I gotta go
     I gotta go
     I gotta go before I stay

          I made a promise worth keeping
          It's time to get on with the leavin'

     I ain't gettin' no stronger
     I can't hang around much longer
     It ain't easy to say no
     But someone's there for me at home
     I gotta go
     I gotta go
     I gotta go before I stay

     I gotta go
     I gotta go
     I gotta go before I stay
