Listen to poem:

Stay With Me

To you I will always be true
here you make me safe, free
because in your arms I belong
you are so sweet my honeybee,
please don't go, stay with me,

You're my world, my reason to live
you give me life, roots of my tree
supplying me with happiness, love
you feed me when I'm so hungry 
Please don't go, stay with me,

My heart will break if you leave
think of good times, please agree 
we are so good, so good together
to my hearts lock, you are the key
please don't go, stay with me,

we were happy once we can again
please don't say what will be will be
losing you I can't even imagine 
so say you will stay fill me with glee 
please don't go, stay with me,

I can't help my feeling towards you
loving you is so easy to me you see
your my soul mate, my rock, friend
if I've done wrong accept my apology 
Please don't go, stay with me.

Such a romantic song, Roy! The way I am singing it in my head, I feel a pause between "please don't go, stay with me." Love it, my friend!
