[Intro]
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave
Don't leave, don't, don't leave

[Verse 1]
I am thinking of you
In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you
Then my heart just won't let me be right
'Cause I've drownеd in you
And I won't pull through
Without you by my side

[Chorus]
I'd give my all to have (All, to havе)
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel (To feel)
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight

[Verse 2]
So put your loving arms around me, boy
And hold me like I was a cuddly toy
Let me feel that warmth of your embrace
Don't let go, oh

[Verse 3]
'Cause there could be no sadder sight to see
Than if we were to miss this opportunity
So send me up a signal and I'll catch the light
If there's no time, you know it's up to you

[Hook]
(Why don't you) So why don't you
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child (Ooh)
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child

[Bridge]
There's no need to act surprised
Cause there's no room to serve us right
So let's push love to the limit
And life to the edge
I've only one request of you
Stay a while

[Chorus]
I'd give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight
(Tell me, baby, tell me, tell me, baby)

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
