Stay

If I build a wall a hundred feet tall
Would that keep you in?

If I shackled your feet
so you couldn't leave
Would you try and run?

If I promise not to fight--
at least not tonight,
Would you stay tonight?

If I wore that little dress
that you like the best
Would you pass my test?

Would you stay?
Would you stay with me?

If I poured another drink
what would you think
About staying in?

If I was sincere
and whispered my fears
Would you still be here?

Would you stay?
Would you stay with me?
Would you stay?
Would you stay with me, with me?

If I build a wall
a hundred feet tall
would that keep you in?
