[Verse 1]
EDon’t have to talk about it
Don’t want to fix it no mAore
My heart was so hesitant
You held it gently beforeE  
But we sit here breakin’
We’re staring vacant on the porAch
A few words could fix it
If I could just find them, I’m Esure
[Chorus]
You don’t have to leAave me
You don’t have to goE  
Stayin’s so AeasyB  
Come away from the Edoor
[Verse 2]
You watch me so desperate
Bright eyes and tears on my Aface
My pride left here hours ago
I was hoping it go in your Eplace 
But you put out your cigarette
I find my drink is all Agone
Its not even dark yet
But I feel it coming Eon
[Chorus]
You don’t have to leAave me
You don’t have to Ego
Stayin’s so AeasBy
Come away from the Edoor 
[Bridge]
Now I’ve gAiven up on sleepin’
Stay up all night with tC#mhe night
Oh but sAhe’s so indifferent
We have so little in comB-mon
[Verse 3]
I could Esit talking here alone
But what would the neighbors say oAf that
So I put it in a song
And I sang it to the place you stood Elast
[Chorus]
You don’t have to lAeave me
You don’t have to Ego
Stayin’s so eAasyB  
Come away from the Edoor
Stayin’s so AeasyB, 
Come away from the Edoor

C#m

[Verse 1]

Don’t have to talk about it

Don’t want to fix it no more

My heart was so hesitant

You held it gently before

But we sit here breakin’

We’re staring vacant on the porch

A few words could fix it

If I could just find them, I’m sure

[Chorus]

You don’t have to leave me

You don’t have to go

A B

Stayin’s so easy

Come away from the door

[Verse 2]

You watch me so desperate

Bright eyes and tears on my face

My pride left here hours ago

I was hoping it go in your place

But you put out your cigarette

I find my drink is all gone

Its not even dark yet

But I feel it coming on

[Chorus]

You don’t have to leave me

You don’t have to go

A B

Stayin’s so easy

Come away from the door

[Bridge]

Now I’ve given up on sleepin’

C#m

Stay up all night with the night

Oh but she’s so indifferent

We have so little in com-mon

[Verse 3]

I could sit talking here alone

But what would the neighbors say of that

So I put it in a song

And I sang it to the place you stood last

[Chorus]

You don’t have to leave me

You don’t have to go

A B

Stayin’s so easy

Come away from the door

A B

Stayin’s so easy,

Come away from the door
