[Verse 1: Brian]
To be happy
You are all I need to make me happy
'Cause every time you're near
All the tears inside are raindrops
All the sadness in my lifetime goes away
Just believe in me
All I need is someone who believes in me
You're the good luck charm
You're the reason for the rainbows
God knows I'd hate to see you go away
Baby don't leave me this way

[Chorus: AJ & All]
If you stay
If you stay I'll give you what you want
I'll show you
I'll show you I'm the only one for you
If you stay
If you stay with me
Then I'll show you
I'll show you how much I need you
Oh how much I need you, babe

[Verse 2: Brian]
To be with you
I just wanna constantly be with you
It's only when you're around
All my problems solve my problems
All the clouds inside my garden roll away
Baby they roll away

[Chorus: Brian, AJ & All]
If you stay
If you stay I'll do anything you want
(I'll do anything you want)
I'll show you
I'll show you I'm the only one for you, baby
If you stay
If you stay with me
Then I'll show you
I'll show you how much I need you
(How much I need you)
How much I need you
(Oh how much I need you)
How much I need you baby

[Verse 3: Brian]
Oh forever
You have all my gratitude forever
For being who you are
Brings me victory as a promise
My frustrations and my losses fly high away
They fly, ooh-ooh!

[Interlude: All, Brian & AJ]
If you stay (stay baby, baby)
(Anything you want, anything you want)
I'll show you
I'll show you how much I need you
(How much I need you, baby)
If you stay
If you stay with me
Then I'll show you
I'll show you (I'll show you)
I'll show you baby

[Chorus: Brian & All]
If you stay
If you stay I'll do anything you want
I'll show you
I'll show you I'm the only one for you baby!
If you stay
If you stay with me
Then I'll show you
Baby then I'll show you, I'll show you
Hey-yeah!

[Outro: Brian & All]
If you stay
Only if you stay, only if you stay
I'll show you
Only if you stay, only if you stay baby!
If you stay
Then I'll show you how much I need you baby!

Backstreet Boys

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
