[Female Vocalist]
[Verse 1]
Every evening when you call my name
I can hear the hesitation in your voice
You say you love me, then you drift away
Leaving me with all the noise
I've been patient, I've been understanding
Giving you room to find your way
But every road keeps leading back here
Only for you to leave the next day
[Pre-Chorus]
How many chances can one heart survive?
How many tears do I have left to cry?
[Chorus]
If you're gonna stay, then stay
If you're gonna leave, then leave
Don't keep me hanging on a promise
You don't believe
I need more than midnight conversations
More than temporary dreams
Baby, love is more than what you say
It's what you mean
[Verse 2]
I've watched the seasons change outside my window
While we stayed right where we've always been
You keep searching for something better
While losing what you've got within
And I can't keep standing in the doorway
Waiting for your heart to choose
'Cause every time you walk away
I'm the one with something to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
How many chances can one heart survive?
How many tears do I have left to cry?
I've given all that I can give
But half a love is hard to live
[Chorus]
If you're gonna stay, then stay
If you're gonna leave, then leave
Don't keep me hanging on a promise
You don't believe
I need more than midnight conversations
More than temporary dreams
Baby, love is more than what you say
It's what you mean
[Guitar Solo]
[Soft Breakdown]
[Bridge]
If you're gonna stay, then stay
If you're gonna leave, then leave
But don't come knocking at my door
When you finally see
That the love you kept on questioning
Was everything you need
If you're gonna stay, then stay
And stay completely
I've given all that I can give
If you're gonna stay, then stay
And stay completely
I’ve given all that I can give
If you're gonna stay, then stay
And stay completely
I’ve given all that I can give
If you're gonna stay, then stay
And stay completely
I’ve give all that I can give
How many chances can one heart survive?
How many tears do I have left to cry?
[Final Chorus]
If you're gonna stay, then stay
If you're gonna leave, then leave
Don't keep me hanging on a promise
You don't believe
I need more than midnight conversations
More than temporary dreams
Baby, love is more than what you say
It's what you mean
[Outro]
You say you need your space,
need time to breathe
But every night you're right back next to me
Giving me just enough to make me believe
Your gonna stay Here with me-
Completely-
Your gonna stay Here with me-
Completely-
How many chances can one heart survive?
How many tears do I have left to cry?
Your gonna stay Here with me-
Completely-
Mhmm
Completely…
