It’s time for me to go, even though I love you so
I couldn’t stay here any longer cos I know I’ve had my share
You lie here sleeping unaware and I'm sure you wouldn't care
If you knew what I am thinking still I offer up this prayer
Stay as sweet as you are now
It’s very easy if you try
You’ll have to want to learn how
Just stay as sweet as you are now
[ instrumental ]
Stay as sweet as you are now...
I awaken with the day and that's the price I had to pay
For once sweet night close to you now you're so near yet far away
Most of the time you caused me pain and you should really be ashamed
The way you treat the ones who love you be your sweet sweet self again
Stay as sweet as you are now...
