Why don't you stay ? Glenn Hughes
Contest by Robert James Ligouri
Why Don't You Stay ? Had you ever loved me, Dear ! Then why don't you stay ? I looked straight to your eyes : Your eyes glistened.. But I failed to descry my reflection in your eyes. You walked away leaving me confused. Have you ever loved me ,Dear ! Then why don't you stay ? Why you stepped hesitant ? My eager ears waited to listen something. You neither talked nor listened, Just passed! Not sure whether you turned back for a while. I can't stop you from going away ! Why don't you stay ! Had you ever loved me ? Then why you hurried to reach me at dusty dusk ! I stretched my hand to welcome. You didn't hold but went away. Not sure, whether you wobbled or ignored ! Why don't you stay? Had you ever loved me ! When you appeared in misty night I dreamed to be in your arms but you just glanced and left. Why don't you stay ? Have you ever loved me ? I am carrying my ache throughout life ! ' Cause I had loved you. Why don't you stay ? I can't stop you from going away. Can't we stay together ? Please don't go away.
