No, you cannot stay for the night   I'm not your anytime you want me delight   I've been healing both my body and mind   Found the courage that can free me this time      We're playin' by a new set of rules   Baby these were not designed for some fool   See, I've taken all that I'm gonna take   It's the rest of my life that's at stake      So, don't you come around drinkin' high and thinkin'   I'm gonna lay down, 'cause you're wrong, you're so wrong   I'm through with letting you walk in, do the talkin'   Puttin' your hands where they don't belong, they don't belong   You can't just show up, use me, lie and abuse me   This time baby - stay gone, you can stay gone      I'm no longer falling apart   See, I finally got you out of my heart   And if I ever think of taking you back   You'll remind me how I feel about that      So don't you come around drinkin', high and thinkin'   I'm gonna lay down, 'cause you're wrong, oh yeah damn wrong   I'm through with letting you walk in do the talkin'   Puttin' your hands where you know they don't belong, no, no they don't belong   You can't just show up, use me, lie and abuse me   This time baby, you, you, you - you can stay gone   (You can stay gone...)      I don't need the smooth talk on a good night   Doin' just fine, doin' alright - stay gone   (I don't need you, no)      I don't need the false hope, or the bad dope   Or the rough love, had enough of it - stay gone      You can't be a no show, whem I'm real low   It's a no blow, it's a no go - stay gone, stay gone...gone      So don't you come around drinkin', sad and steamin'   Baby let me tell you   I won't work this time   It ain't gonna work no   Ain't gonna work no   I'm tired of letting you hurt me, scream and curse me   Baby, that pain is more than you're worth   Today is gonna be my day, find you a highway   Hear me baby, stay gone - you can stay gone      You can stay, out there, somewhere   I don't care, I don't care - stay gone   (You don't believe it)      You can take a slow boat or a long road   To a fast plane, to a slow train   Stay gone, stay gone - you can stay gone
