Why don't you stay

In my mind, you're always there 
A constant presence, beyond compare 
Leaving me feeling helpless and bare 

You're my home, my soul's retreat 
The one I long to come back to, sweet 
Can't live without you, my heart skips a beat 

You're the answer to my deepest prayer 
The reason I exist, my love so rare 
Special and precious, beyond compare 

I made a mistake, I confess 
One I'll never repeat, I must profess 
My love for you will forever be the best

Think of us, and the days we shared
Beautiful memories, our love declared
Oh baby, think of me, and show you care
