Lyrics: I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall And I've been laying here praying, praying she won't call It's just another call from home And you'll get it and be gone And I'll be crying
And I'll be begging you, baby Beg you not to leave But I'll be left here waiting With my Heart on my sleeve Oh, for the next time we'll be here Seems like a million years And I think I'm dying
What do I have to do to make you see She can't love you like me?
Why don't you stay I'm down on my knees I'm so tired of being lonely Don't I give you what you need When she calls you to go There is one thing you should know We don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay
You keep telling me, baby There will come a time When you will leave her arms And forever be in mine But I don't think that's the truth And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting It's too much pain to have to bear To love a man you have to share
Why don't you stay I'm down on my knees I'm so tired of being lonely Don't I give you what you need When she calls you to go There is one thing you should know We don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay
I can't take it any longer But my will is getting stronger And I think I know just what I have to do I can't waste another minute After all that I've put in it I've given you my best Why does she get the best of you So next time you find you wanna leave her bed for mine
Why don't you stay I'm up off my knees I'm so tired of being lonely You can't give me what I need When she begs you not to go There is one thing you should know I don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay, yeah
That last chorus says,it all ehy don't you...Stay!! I don't need no cheating man. If he cheats on me with you,he'll cheat on you with whomever is next. Don't understand why some women/men think that a cheating person will not cheat on them. Do they think they are special. Another of cheaters won't leave home because they think they can have the best if both worlds...not in my world you can't, so if you gotta cheat,you Stay where you are cheating ...okayyyy!!
What a performance! I know how hard it was to record, but having the courage to pull it off live, without missing a single note, tone, or inflection is incredible. She is a once in a lifetime talent.
Jenn is either re-living bad times or is a fantastic performer/actress. She seriously needs to get a great movie script and add a best actress award to her resume. There's nothing this woman can't do.
Wow. I hear this song and I am frozen in time for the moment. I have only heard that purity of voice in only one other artist (Allison Krauss). I am just speechless when I hear Jennifer Nettles' voice. She just rocks me like that, lol!
Why do I cry every time I hear this song no matter how many times I've heard it 😥😥 SUCH POWERFUL EMOTION AND CONVICTION , Especially if you're with somebody that's""not all yours""😥😥
Makes me mad as #@!$. The side chick doesn't want your man; she wants your life, your kids, your house, your security, your future and retirement. They are looking for the middle-aged fool who believes the lies and flattery. He's just the necessary evil to get to everything the wife has.
Y'all already know what you got with Jenifer nettles and she is a great person and living legend in the music 🎶 of country music and the sweetest person and she definitely loves her fans and she is one of my favorite performance and artist but have many more people in the world 🌎 of music 🎵 but always have had a special place in my heart 💜❤️ for her and her family members and her talent is so amazing and incredible 👍💪💯💎🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I know my situation is not exactly what this song is about but I think of my father everytime I listen to this. Our last moment together was with him passing in the hospital while the staff was attempting to revive him.
I watched the official video to this, and it is so emotional, she obviously has been through this herself and the video was awesome and made me cry. I don’t mind saying. Talk about singing from the heart wow.!!!
I couldnt stand this somg for years. Until we lived through the same thing. I let the one who deserved the best of me walk away to keep the current shit. Always hold that one close
Gutted wrenching! I can relate to this song!!! I had to finally walk away. Never beg a man to stay! If he doesn’t stay, walk away. We deserve better. Having said that I know because I lived this situation personally. 😢
Me too, after 13 years of waiting, I chose me, yes it was wrong, but we met while he was separated, too many times he let her back, while not wanting to, 😢

I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When she calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay
You keep telling me, baby
There will come a time
When you will leave her arms
And forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth
And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting
It's too much pain to have to bear
To love a man you have to share

But my will is getting stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do
I can't waste another minute
After all that I've put in it
I've given you my best
Why does she get the best of you
So next time you find you wanna leave her bed for mine
Why don't you stay
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
You can't give me what I need
When she begs you not to go
There is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay, yeah
This rips my heart out.
I can't share what belongs to the only true love of my life!
😊❤❤❤😢
Top 5 emotional song ever!
#1 country! Love Jens voice!

The question that comes to mind is “Can you make em feel what you feel “ ? She can. All the way to the core. Beautiful person inside and out
@@DougDavis-ll1cv 🥰
Out of all the live videos of this song I've seen, it leaves me in awe how she makes the song so believable with her delivery and emotion just wow
She cannot be outdone, on this one.
-Period.
That's bc its a true story for her
Maybe She's reliving a true part of her life ....
Beautiful Lady and song
That poor woman, to have to relive that moment in life to sing a song. I hope she never has to relive it and that she finds peace.
Out of this world performance. The emotions she put in this song makes every word she sing believable.
She wrote it and knows exactly how it should sound!
Gives me the chills every time I hear this song. Jennifer is so unbelievable and pray she never stops singing.
One of the most stunning performances I've ever come across. What a talent and gift. Thank you!
Jenn is either re-living bad times or is a fantastic performer/actress. She seriously needs to get a great movie script and add a best actress award to her resume. There's nothing this woman can't do.

Jennifer Nettles is simply Amazing, I love “Stay” and all the emotion she sings with. Jennifer really brings it when singing this song.

Her husband was cheating on her when this came out
