Rihanna - Stay
All along it was a fever
A cold sweat hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said show me something
He said, if you dare come a little closer
Round and around and around and around we go
Ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can’t live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
It’s not much of a life you’re living
It’s not just something you take, it’s given
Round and around and around and around we go
Ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can’t live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
Ohhh the reason I hold on
Ohhh cause I need this hole gone
Funny you're the broken one but I’m the only one who needed saving
Cause when you never see the lights it’s hard to know which one of us is caving
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can’t live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay, stay
I want you to stay, ohhh
“Stay” is the second single off of Rihanna’s seventh studio album Unapologetic. It features guest vocals from Mikky Ekko and was written by Ekko and Justin Parker. With this gorgeous piano ballad, Rihanna puts a vulnerable spin on the Brown situation, repeating another theme of the album – failing to resist true love. She inspires melancholy and raw emotion with this track, and never fails to convey her honesty with her lyrics and her delivery. Chartwise, “Stay” was incredibly successful, moving over 10 million units all together, making it Rih’s third most successful single after “Love the Way You Lie” with Eminem and “We Found Love” with Calvin Harris.
