Stay Away

You gave me too many chances
Now it's drivin' us apart
I keep on runnin' with the boys, girl
But then you knew that from the start

It must keep buildin' up inside you
'Cause you never let it show
I know I'm hangin' on the edge now
But I won't let it go

(Ooh)
Oh, never meant to hurt you
But somethin' was on my mind
Just give me one more chance
We can make it this time

(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
But I'm tryin' my best
(Stay away, stay away from my heart)

If you gave me three wishes
I'd throw two of them away
I've seen that look in your eyes girl
I'd use the last one this way

We've been from rags to riches
But your love can't be bought
I'm just a junkyard dog, girl
Who's afraid of bein' caught
(Ooh)

You're standin' in the shadows
Watchin' everythin' that I do
And I know the way things look
It couldn't be further from the truth

(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
I'm doin' all that I can
(Stay away, stay away from my heart)

Remember how it used to be girl
Makin' love like it's the last time
We held each other close
Not knowin' what we'd found
You felt the poundin' of my thunder
As your rain was pourin' down

(Ooh)
I never meant to hurt you
But somethin' was on my mind aey
Just give me one more chance
We can make it this time

(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
Yea, but I wanna stay here with you
(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
But I don't know if I can stay away
(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
Yea, I'm doin' all that I can do
(Stay away, stay away from my heart)
Oh
But I wanna stay away from you
Yea, stay away
Ahh, stay away
I'm doin' all that I can do

Stay away
Wanna stay
Stay away
Wanna stay
Stay away
Wanna stay
Stay away
Wanna stay
I'm doin' all I can do
Stay away
