If I had Stayed with You - Nancy Lee Baxter

Back in that stage I can see myself

Part of an act, a short story for two

Making scenes from a second-rate play

Reading the lines that you wrote me to say

And if I had stayed with you
I might have never known
I was playing the part of a fool
If I had stayed with you

I had my doubts wonderin' if I should go
Was lonely with you better than being alone
Your cruelty kept me from feeling unsure
I'm so glad I walked out the door

'Cause if I had stayed with you
I might have never known
That all love isn't cruel
If I had stayed with you

At last I'm learning what life really means
One gentle lover not a series of dreams
He makes me laugh and he takes my fears
Bad times are better whenever he's near

And if I had stayed with you
I might have never known
A love so strong and so true
If I had stayed with you

And he holds me close in the night
And he knows the right words to use
And his love I wouldn't have found
If I had stayed with you
