Say you love me to my face

I need it more than your embrace

Just say you want me, that's all it takes

Heart's getting torn from your mistakes

 

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love

If you don't wanna try

But all that I've been thinking of

Is maybe that you might

And babe, it looks as though we're running out of words to say

And love's floating away

 

Just say you love me, just for today

And don't give me time 'cause that's not the same

Want to feel burning flames when you say my name

Want to feel passion flow into my bones

Like blood through my veins

 

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love

If you don't wanna try

But all that I've been thinking of

Is maybe that you might

And babe, it looks as though we're running out of words to say

And love's floating away

 

Won't you stay

Won't you stay

Slowly, slowly you run for me

But do you know me at all

Some one told me love controls everything

But only if you know

 

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love

(No no no no)

If you don't wanna try

(Could you try some time)

'Cause all that I've been thinking of

(I just think)

Is maybe that you might

(You might)

 

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love

If you don't wanna try

But all that I've been thinking of

Is maybe that you might

And babe, it looks as though we're running out of words to say

And love's floating away

Won't you stay

Won't you stay.
