[Verse 1]
I've seen your face a thousand times
Have all your stories memorized
I've kissed your lips a million ways
But I still love to have you around
I've held you too many times to count
I think I know you inside out
And we're together most days
But I still love to have you around

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one I want and it's not just a phase
You're the one I trust, our love is the real thing

[Chorus]
Don't go away
My love (My love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (My love)
I'm happiest when we spend time

[Verse 2]
You're a salty water ocean wave
You knock me down, you kiss my face
I know the storms will always come
But I still love to have you around
And Heaven knows what will come next
So emotional, you're so complex
A rollercoaster built to crash
But I still love to have you around

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one I want and it's not just a phase
And you're the one I trust, our love is the real thing

[Chorus]
Don't go away
My love (My love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (My love)
I'm happiest when we spend time
(It's only you and I)
(It's only you and I)

[Bridge]
It's you there when I close my eyes
And you in the morning
I never thought you'd still be mine
Or I'd really need to have you around

[Chorus]
Don't go away
My love (My love)
I want you to stay
In my life
Don't go away
My lover (My love)
I need you, you're my love supply
Don't go away
In my love supply
I want you to stay
In my life (Every day, every day)
Don't go away
My lover (My love supply)

[Outro]
I need you, you're my love supply
