[English]

Stay

Stay, baby, stay

Stay

Stay, baby, stay

Say that you love me the best

Say that you want me undressed

Lovers, you run, always from something

Let me be where you can rest

'Cause I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way, hey

I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way

'Cause I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way, hey

I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way

I can be your dream woman, dream woman

I can be your dream woman, dream woman

Dream woman

I can be your dream woman, dream woman

I got a body, I got a story

You got your dark, twisted, fantasy wrong

If she's sleeping when you call me

In a second, I'm coming for you

Stay

Stay, baby, stay

Stay

Stay, baby, stay

Lovers, you run, always from something

Come back to me to be saved

'Cause I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way, hey

I don't ever wanna feel another fucking way

I can be your dream woman

Dream woman

Dream woman, dream woman

I can be your dream woman

Dream woman, dream woman, yeah

Dream woman, dream woman, I said I was your

Dream woman, dream woman, I said I was your

Dream woman

Said I was your (dream)

Said I was your (dream)

Said I was your

(Dream woman)

Ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ah, ah, ah (dream)

Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (dream)
