Ask Me to Stay Lyrics by Labi Siffre

[Verse 1]
I'm not supposed to write you letters
And not one letter have I writtern
I mustn't call you on the phone
And on the phone I've left you strictly alone
[Chorus]
Look here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for more
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
[Verse 2]
It's hard when love becomes a daily fight
Still I can't believe this is the end
When I'm alone and lonely in the night
It's just no good to pretend
[Chorus]
So here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for morе
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
[Verse 3]
It doesn't mattеr who was right or who was wrong
I'll take the blame I just don't care
But on my own I just can't get along
Since you've been gone I think I'm losing my hair
[Chorus]
So here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for more
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
[Verse 4]
Perhaps it's wrong for me to bother you this way
Maybe you've really gone for good
But I can't help the way I love you more each day
I wish you'd come home I really wish you would
[Chorus]
Huh, here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for more
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
Here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for more
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
Here I am I'm knocking on your door
You keep turning me away
Well I don't mind I keep coming back for more
Won't you ask me to stay, ask me to stay?
