Give Me a Reason to Stay – ELP

I could walk on and tell myself there’s no room for you in my life
Pretend there’s nothing left inside
Just throw us away
But I still believe, if you asked I’d walk into the fire for you
Uh huh, don’t wanna leave you here like this
I keep holding on if there’s something else

Chorus*
I’m willing to lay my heartache down
Give me a reason to stay
It wouldn’t take much to turn me around then stop me for leavin
And give me a reason to stay

Just say the words I can surely stand on little compromise
Just reach out to me with your live I’ll meet you half way
Give me some little sign, show me there’s some hope for love inside your heart
Uh huh, what could it hurt to try a bit
Wanting her and more if we let it in

Back *

You have me in your hands to keep here
Just stop me before we go too far
All you have to do is talk to me
If it’s not too late, look into my heart…

I’m willing
Don’t need very much from you
I’m willing
What I’m tried to said to you

I’m willing to lay my heartache down
Give me a reason to stay
It wouldn’t take much to turn me around then stop me for leavin’
And give me a reason.
