Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby
Sweetheart
 listen
 I know the last few pages
 Haven't been good for the both of us


And I've caused you a lot of grief


but put those bags down
 okay?
 Before you make a decision like that


please just listen to me


'Cos I don't want to leave


I definitely don't want you to leave


Just hear me out:


Honey
 don't leave me now
 with my head on my shoulders wrong


Have I done something wrong for you to leave?
 I know I've been careless
 girl
 and I must apologize


I'll try better next time
 baby
 if you let me stay.


If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said
 If you let me stay - I should have said that I love you
 If you let me stay - And I should have said it from my heart -
 If you let me stay.


Honey
 don't compensate for my indiscretions


Dear
 tell me it's not too late
 that I'd love to hear


'Cause if you don't call on me
 you will see a grown man cry


I didn't miss my water
 'til my world ran dry.
 But if you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said - . . .


Your pretentions aim for gullible fools


And now
 who needs you
 anyway?
 I'll get mine where I taught the school


You will regret it some day!


If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said - . . .
 'Cause I need you
 I'm not a man without you
 baby.
 If you let me stay - I'll say what I should have said - . . .
 If you Let me stay - I'll say what I should have said - . . .
