You Don't Have To Stay
Words and music by Julie Black
If my love ain't right
To keep you warm at night
You don't have to stay
If you don't want to be
Lying next to me
You don't have to stay
If you can't take the love
I have to give
It will be hard to find
A way to live
But I tell you now
If you don't love me
You don't have to stay.
If I don't come to mind
when you close your eyes
You don't have to stay
When my soul is spilled
If your heart ain't filled
You don't have to stay
If my love don't make you swell inside
and you want to roll out with the tide
Then I tell you now
If you don't love me
You don't have to stay.
(Repeat verse 2)
Oh I tell you now
If you don't love me
You don't have to stay.
