[Intro: Mariah Carey]
I told you Jermaine likes it, then I like it

[Hook 1: Mariah Carey]
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(So so def, MC like what?)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Uh-uh, uh-uh, JD like, what?)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Uh-uh, uh-uh, lord tariq like, what?)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Uh-uh, uh-uh, Peter Gunz like, what?)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Uh-uh, uh-uh, [?] like, what?)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Uh-uh, uh-uh, and uptown, play, play on)
(Sounds cute, play, play on)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
([?] play, play on, come on)
Don't leave, don't don't leave
(Play on, MC, play on)

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I am thinking of you
In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you (Like that)
Then my heart just won't let me be right
'Cause I've drowned in you
And I won't pull through
Without you by my side

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I'd give my all to have (My all)
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel (Yeah, uh-huh)
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on (Go on and on)/
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight (My all)
(MC, come on)

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
So put your loving arms around me, boy (Uh, yeah)
And hold me like I was a cuddly toy (That's right)
Let me feel that warmth of your embrace (Uh-huh)
Don't let go, oh (Yeah)

[Verse 3: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
'Cause there could be no sadder sight to see (No, no)
Than if we were to miss this opportunity (Uh-huh, so what?)
So send me up a signal and I'll catch the light (Yeah)
If there's no time (Uh), you know it's up to you (Uh-huh, yeah)

[Hook 2: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
So why don't you
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child (I like this)
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child (Now let's take it up town, get down)

[Verse 4: Peter Gunz & (Jermaine Dupri)]
Well, since you put it that way
Honey, I'm gon' stay
And only your love could make Peter parley (Uh)
Let the limo leave and cancel the flight
And not only will I stay, girl, I'm spendin' the night
And if it's right, I'm spendin' my life, all out
And if it seems like I'm rushin', then I'll sleep on the couch
MC, it's your call, I'm ready to ball
And if you need me, I'm ready to brawl

[Verse 5: Lord Tariq]
And that's forever by law, together we ball, we takin' it all
I'll make you feel a way a woman never felt before
I see women on many levels, never higher than yours
With a body like that, that face, no flaw
You got to be heaven sent, sayin' you's a dime
You off to meter and it's evident, you like the way I rhyme
Yes, I shine, I'm a veteran
Picture me and honey spendin' money like whatever then
We both got it

[Hook 2: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
(Why don't you) So why don't you
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child (Ooh) (sing along)
Stay a little while, child (Stay)
Stay a little while, child (Come on)

[Bridge: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
There's no need to act surprised (Uh-huh, uh-huh, say what?)
Cause there's no room to serve us right
So let's push love to the limit (Uh-huh)
And life to the edge
I've only one request of you
Stay a while

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I'd give my all to have (Uh-huh, MC like, what?)
Just one more night with you (JD like, what?)
I'd risk my life to feel (Uh-huh, Lord Tariq like, what?)
Your body next to mine ('Cause I can't go on)
(Peter Gunz like, what? Uh-huh)
Living in the memory of our song (Uh-huh, uh-huh, [?] like, what?)
I'd give my all for your love tonight
(And up town play, play on, sounds cute, play, play on)
(DX, play, play on)
[?], play on
MC, play, play on

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.
