Feelings come and feelings go away...it happens everyday We let it slip away We can say goodnight or work it out some way ...or find the words to say 'You don't have to stay' (Chorus) You don't have to stay forever You don't have to stay at all You won't have to wait a lifetime You don't have to stay... So many times we tried to break away...but we were so afraid We dreamed of yesterday And of all the times you made me feel this way ...you found the words to say 'You don't have to stay' (Chorus) You don't have to stay forever You don't have to stay at all You won't have to wait a lifetime You don't have to stay... (solo- repeat chorus)
