sadbuttrue Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 STAY Sugarland Enjoy The Ride i been sittin' here staring at the clock on the wall and i been layin 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 beggin 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 dont you stay im down on my knees im so tired of being lonely don't i give you what you need when she calls you will go there is one thing you should know we dont have to live this way baby why dont you stay you keep telling me baby there will come a time when you will leave her arms and forever be in mine [stay lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com] 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 bare to love a man you have to share why dont you stay im down on my knees im so tired of being lonely don't i give you what you need when she calls you will go there is one thing you should know we dont have to live this way baby why dont 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 the next time you find you wanna leave her bed for mine why dont you stay im up off my knees im so tired of being lonely you cant give me what i need when she begs you not to go there is one thing you should know i dont have to live this way baby why dont you stay yeah yeah oh oh oh oha oh i just thought this song says so well what many of us go through.
greengoddess Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 yes it does. Why do this to yourself. Why allow him to do it to you?
Author sadbuttrue Posted September 11, 2007 Author Posted September 11, 2007 well, at the end of the song, the OW realizes all of this and tells the MM to stay with his W where he belongs. i dont think it is pathetic to want to be with someone you love, it is more pathetic in my opinion to be with someone who doesnt love you.
CAT100 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 i dont think it is pathetic to want to be with someone you love, it is more pathetic in my opinion to be with someone who doesnt love you. I totally agree!
simplegirl Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 That is actually one of my favorite songs. I played it in the car one time when my MM was with me but he didn't catch the meaning (or pretended not to). I love the end how she decides she's done. If only it were always that easy!

In my world thats a sword I hold by the blade
PoshPrincess Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Never heard this song before, SBT, but perfect lyrics. Good to have a positive ending too. This should be an inspiration to those who are still in the OW/MM sitch! Wish I'd know it when I was with MM as I would have played it to him too!
Chuckles84 Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 Although you can read the lyrics I think it's more powerful when you get to SEE and HEAR it so thank you YouTube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbgBnMxjykw Thank you for bringing this song to my attention. Struggling hard right now and hearing this makes a world of difference. Weird how certain songs can touch you in such a way to motivate you to do things you've been thinking about doing but holding back on for various reasons.
