what do you want from me? there's something you grab in me
when your hand brings beauty with its warm gentle weight
feasting on your kiss like I haven't eaten in days
I wonder if you'll stay, I wonder if you'll stay
I look for reasons to make you leave and to sabotage the lovin' part of me
but there's nothing I can do when you touch me so tenderly
lyin' here I find my solace with you, I wish I'd found it on my own
so hard to grab ahold a loving hand, so stubborn set in my ways
you linger on beyond a passing phase yet I doubt your true intentions
I wonder if you'll stay, I wonder if you'll stay
I look for reasons to make you leave and to sabotage the lovin' part of me
but there's nothing I can do when you touch me so tenderly
a stranger read me once like I was a book, told me I didn't trust men
I can never seem to turn the page, I live the same old story again and again
again and again, again and again
when I say I have to leave, it really means hold me tight
cuz baby I could stay, I could stay all night
but testing you I will push you away, just to see what you will do
I wonder if you'll stay, I wonder if you'll stay
