Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who did you run to and find a shoulder to lay your head upon?
Baby, wasn't I there, didn't I take good care of you?
Oh no, I can't believe you're leaving me
Stay with me, baby, stay with me, baby
Stay with me, baby, I can't go on
I gave you so much and in return I found happiness
Baby, what did I do? Maybe, I was too good to you
Oh no, I can't believe you're leaving me
Remember, you said you'd never, never leave me
Remember, you said you're always gonna need me
Remember, remember
I'm askin' ya, beggin' ya, please, please
Stay with me, baby, stay with me, baby
Stay with me, baby, I can't go on

She's her own artist, but definitely the PERFECT combination of Janis Joplin and Amy Winehouse with a touch of Adele! Can't wait to see what she does in the future! Karise, don't stop singing for us!
