If you stay- New

Verse 1

I need a drink more than God needs me to pray

The devil’s kicking down my door

Another war he won today

You needed me more than I needed you to stay

And I hate myself for wanting something

That keeps driving you away

Chorus

But if you stay

Lord knows I will try

To run from all my demons

Till I find the strength to fight

If you wait

Give me just a little time

I’ll do my best to love you

More than I love that whiskey high

If you stay

Verse 2

I took that drink for the last time yesterday

And today I fell down on my knees

As I drank the pain away

Take my advice and leave me on that dirty floor

Let the bottle take my soul

So it can’t hurt you anymore

Chorus (Repeat)

But if you stay

Lord knows I will try

To run from all my demons

Till I find the strength to fight

If you wait

Give me just a little time

I’ll do my best to love you

More than I love that whiskey high

If you stay
