Mariah Carey – I Stay In Love lyrics
Oh, baby
Baby
I stay in love with you

Dying inside cause
I can't stand it
Make up a break up
Can't take this madness
We don't even
Really know why
All I know is baby
I try and try so hard
To keep our love alive

If you dont' know me
At this point
Then I highly
Doubt you ever will
I really need you
To give me
That unconditional love
I used to feel
It's no mistaking
We're just erasing
From our hearts
And minds

And I know we said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
Cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby
I stay in love with you

And I keep on
Telling myself
That you'll come
Back around
And I try to front
Like "oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you now
No matter what I do
But baby, baby
I stay in love with you

Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na
Baby
I stay in love with you

It cuts so deep
It hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me
I ain't the same no more
We still need each other
When we stumble and fall
How we gon' act
Like what we had
Ain't nothin' at all now

Hey
What I wanna do is
Wish I got next to you
With the top down
Like we used to
Hit the block
Proud in the suv
We both know
Our heart is breaking
Can we learn
From our mistakes
I can't last
One moment alone
Now go I know

We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
Cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby
I stay in love with you

And I keep on
Telling myself
That you'll come
Back around
And I try to front
Like "oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you
Now no matter what I do
Baby, baby
I stay in love with you

We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
Cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby
I stay in love with you

And I keep on
Telling myself
That you'll come
Back around
And I try to front
Like "oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you
Now no matter what I do
But baby, baby
I stay in love with you

I stay in love
Love
Oh, I stay in love

    Um. Mahal pa rin nia ung dati nia.
    Kya un. Ang ganda ng meaning ng kantang 'to. Actually, bagay na bagay 'to sa mga babaeng umaasa parin na mahal pa cla ng mga ex boyfriends nila. In my case kxe, may manliligaw ako, and then, by the time that I was soo ready to say yes, he decided to call it off, why? Kasi daw, he's not yet ready to have a girlfriend and he just realized that he's still in love with his ex. Well. That's what he has told me, pag sa iba. He keeps on saying na ndi na nia mahal, so ndi ko na din talaga alam, right now, I am still in love with him kahit na nasasaktan ako. This past few days, he really seemed happy. It's as if na nakapag move on na agd xa sakin! Pero ndi padin kami nagpapancnan. Sayang talaga yung friendship. We used to be best friends! Haii. Anhrap ng gani2ng sitwasyon! I stay in love!

    Being left by someone you really love wud really hurts you up to your soul, specially if you surrender your life to him. Its not dat easy to let go specially you consider dat someone your life. No matter how hard you try, even if you knew nothing will happend anymore. You keep on holding on for nothing. D saddest part is, your the only stuck in that damn mess you called love.

    I can totally relate to this song and its kinda sad cuz I'm in ninth grade. I mean come on. I have my whole freakin like ahead of me and I'm looking for someone to be with cuz I can't get over this one guy and if I find someone else then ill get over him. And I really do need to get over him cuz he's a playerrr. Like really bad. He cheated on his gf with me and took advantage of me. But is till like him. Ugh idk. You people prolly don't even care about this so I'm gona stop writing. But baby ill stay in love with youuu.

    This song is very meaningful, for those person, specially for the girls who can't move on, and still hoping that the person they loved would still come back around. The girl in this song is still can't hold on, its just because she still in love with a guy who don't love her anymore.
    This song is very painful for those who can't move on, and still hoping, though its totally over.
